Nov Talasi was a winter pasture located in the territory of the Gazakh uezd of the former Yelizavetpol (Ganja) governorate, later in the former Shamshaddin (Berd) district, and present-day Tavush province. It was dissolved in 1930.
The toponym was coined on the basis of the word “nov” used in the sense of “a ditch, channel” in Azerbaijani and the word “tala” used in the sense of “a glade, an open area within a forest”.
