Jantepe

Jantepe was a winter pasture located in the territory of the Gazakh uezd of the former Yelizavetpol (Ganja) governorate, later in the former Karvansara (Ijevan) district, and present-day Tavush province. It had two parts. It was located near the village of Polad Ayrim (Khachardzap). In 1931, it was integrated into the administrative-territorial division of the former Dilijan district.

The first part of the pasture (the first Jantepe) was inhabited by four Azerbaijanis and the second part (the second Jantepe) was inhabited by 24 Azerbaijanis in 1926. It was dissolved in 1930.

The toponym was coined by adding the word “tepe” used in the sense of “a small mountain, hill” to the word “jan” used in the sense of “a direction, side” in Turkic.
