Aytag was a village in the Echmiadzin uezd of the former Iravan governorate, later in the former Talin district, and present-day Aragatsotn province. The village was located at a distance of 10 km from Talin and at the foot of Bughut Mountain. The name of village was noted as “Aysataq” in Armenian sources and marked as “Aytag” on the five-verst map of the Caucasus.

The village was inhabited by 37 Azerbaijanis in 1873, 32 in 1886, 59 in 1897 and 58 Azerbaijanis in 1914. The Azerbaijanis were exposed to aggression by Armenian armed formations and deported from the village in 1918. The village was abolished in 1920.

The toponym was coined from the word “ay” meaning “white, light, clear” in ancient Turkic and the phonetic variation of the Turkic word “dagh” in the form of “tagh”.
