Zeynalbulag

Zeynalbulag 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 marked on the five-verst map of the Caucasus.

The village was inhabited by 41 Azerbaijanis in 1897, 61 in 1914 and 295 Azerbaijanis in January 1918. The Azerbaijanis were attacked, massacred or expelled from the village by Armenian armed formations in February 1918. At present, it lies in ruins.

The toponym was coined by combining the personal name “Zeynal” and the word “bulag”. The village was named “Zeynalbulag”, as it was built near the spring set by the person named “Zeynal”.
