Galadibi was a village in the territory of the Iravan uezd of the former Iravan governorate, later in the former Gamarli (Artashat) district, and present-day Ararat province. It was located near the Davagozu River. The village was marked on the five-verst map of the Caucasus. The village was within the former Vedi (Ararat) district in the 1930s.
The village was inhabited by 155 Azerbaijanis in 1873, 221 in 1886, 300 in 1897, 242 in 1904, 399 in 1914, and 428 Azerbaijanis in 1916. The Azerbaijanis were attacked, massacred or ousted from the village by Armenian armed units in 1918. Only after the establishment of Soviet power in present- day Armenia, the Azerbaijanis managed to return to their village. The village was inhabited by 126 Azerbaijanis in 1922, 130 in 1926, 189 in 1931 and 387 Azerbaijanis in 1939. The village was abolished in 1950, after the Azerbaijani inhabitants of the village had forcibly been deported to Azerbaijan in accordance with the decision of the USSR Council of Ministers “On the resettlement of collective farmers and other Azerbaijani population from the Armenian SSR to the Kur-Araz lowland of the Azerbaijan SSR” dated 23 December 1947.
The toponym was coined by combining the words “ gala” and “dib” meaning “the bottom, the deepest point of a place”.
