Kurdali was a village in the territory of the Echmiadzin uezd of the former Iravan governorate, later in the former Ashtarak district, and present-day Aragatsotn province. It was located on the bank of the Abaran River. The village was marked on the five-verst map of the Caucasus.
It was solely inhabited by Azerbaijanis: 132 in 1873, 102 in 1886, 143 in 1897, 135 in 1908, 260 in 1914, 249 in 1916 and 135 Azerbaijanis in 1918. The Azerbaijanis were attacked, massacred or ousted from the village by Armenian armed formations in 1918. After the establishment of Soviet power in present-day Armenia, the Azerbaijanis who survived managed to return to their village. The village was solely inhabited by Azerbaijanis: 56 in 1922, 45 in 1926 and 55 Azerbaijanis in 1931. The village was abolished, 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 lowlands of the Azerbaijan SSR” dated 23 December 1947. At present, the village lies in ruins.
The toponym was coined on the basis of a personal name.
