Injavar was a village in the territory of the Zangezur uezd of the former Yelizavetpol (Ganja) governorate, later in the former Gafan district, and present-day Syunik province. İt was located on the left bank of the Khalaj River.

The village was inhabited by 66 Azerbaijanis in 1873, 92 in 1886, 129 in 1897, 140 in 1904 and 89 Azerbaijanis in 1914. The Azerbaijanis were attacked, massacred or expelled from the village by Armenian armed units in 1918. After the establishment of Soviet power in present-day Armenia, a part of the inhabitants returned to their ancestral lands. The village was inhabited by 38 Azerbaijanis in 1922, 42 in 1926 and 45 in 1931. The village was abolished in late 1930s. At present, it lies in ruins.

The toponym was coined by combining the ethnonym “Inja” of the Kipchak Turks and the word “var” meaning “a fortified village, wall or fortress” to denote “a fortress or village belonging to the Inja tribe”.
