    Original text (Russian)

    The offensive process of Kurdish migration was apparently in connection with a series of wars between Persia and Turkey.

    In the current Kurdistan region. Kurds appeared in Azerbaijan no earlier than the 15th - 16th centuries. This is primarily the case in folk tales. For example, the pedigree of the Ilyasov family from the villages. Ogundara, who traces her family from Diyarbekir,1 or stories about the displacement of the Armenian population from the lands of the village area. Shalva - Ardashev and their occupation by Kurds from Khorasan in Persia. 2 The archaeological monuments I encountered in this area, which indicate a Christian-Armenian population that lived here in the Middle Ages, speak to the same thing. The fact that the Kurds settled in these places around 1589, i.e., during the Turkish-Persian war, is evidenced by the fact that the Kurds of the Azerbaijani district belong to the Shiites (under the influence of Persia), while the same tribes of Kurmanji Kurds living in Erivan province, formerly Turkey, currently either Sunnis of the Shafiite persuasion, or Yezites.
    A certain Hadji-Khusan, who is said to have been Seid, arrived in the Zangezur region with ten families of Kurds during the reign of the Persian sovereign Shah Ismail. When he appeared, the villages of Shalva and Karabayramli, which formed one village, were ruled by the Armenian Zur-Keshish. The land of the said village was called Shalva, and Kara-Bayramli was the name of the tribe that came from Khorasan. Another Armenian, in whose jurisdiction the following villages were, namely: Ardashav, Vagazin, Pechaniz and Kurt-Kadzhi, was a certain Shirin-bek; Hadji-Khusan killed Zur Keshish, and Shirin-bek fled. The Armenian villages were devastated and the inhabitants fled. Then Hadji-Khusan with the aforementioned 10 families occupied the deserts “in Ardashav and Vagazin”

  • The sun is the source of life on the planet. Its rays provide the necessary light and warmth. At the same time, ultraviolet radiation from the Sun is destructive to all living things. To find a compromise between useful and harmful properties Sun, meteorologists calculate the ultraviolet radiation index, which characterizes the degree of its danger.

    What kind of UV radiation from the sun is there?

    Ultraviolet radiation from the Sun has a wide range and is divided into three regions, two of which reach the Earth.

    • UVA Long-wave radiation range

      315–400 nm

      The rays pass almost freely through all atmospheric “barriers” and reach the Earth.

    • UV-B. Medium wave range radiation

      280–315 nm

      Rays are 90% absorbed ozone layer, carbon dioxide and water vapor.

    • UV-C. Shortwave range radiation

      100–280 nm

      The most dangerous area. They are completely absorbed by stratospheric ozone without reaching the Earth.

    The more ozone, clouds and aerosols in the atmosphere, the less the harmful effects of the Sun. However, these life-saving factors have a high natural variability. The annual maximum of stratospheric ozone occurs in spring, and the minimum in autumn. Cloudiness is one of the most variable characteristics of weather. The carbon dioxide content also changes all the time.

    At what UV index values ​​is there a danger?

    The UV index provides an estimate of the amount of UV radiation from the Sun at the Earth's surface. UV index values ​​range from a safe 0 to an extreme 11+.

    • 0–2 Low
    • 3–5 Moderate
    • 6–7 High
    • 8–10 Very high
    • 11+ Extreme

    In mid-latitudes, the UV index approaches unsafe values ​​(6–7) only at the maximum height of the Sun above the horizon (occurs in late June - early July). At the equator, the UV index reaches 9...11+ points throughout the year.

    What are the benefits of the sun?

    In small doses, UV radiation from the Sun is simply necessary. The sun's rays synthesize melanin, serotonin, and vitamin D, which are necessary for our health, and prevent rickets.

    Melanin creates a kind of protective barrier for skin cells from the harmful effects of the Sun. Because of it, our skin darkens and becomes more elastic.

    The hormone of happiness serotonin affects our well-being: it improves mood and increases overall vitality.

    Vitamin D strengthens immune system, stabilizes blood pressure and performs anti-rickets functions.

    Why is the sun dangerous?

    When sunbathing, it is important to understand that the line between the beneficial and harmful Sun is very thin. Excessive tanning always borders on a burn. Ultraviolet radiation damages DNA in skin cells.

    Defense system the body cannot cope with such aggressive influence. It lowers immunity, damages the retina, causes skin aging and can lead to cancer.

    Ultraviolet light destroys the DNA chain

    How the Sun affects people

    Sensitivity to UV radiation depends on skin type. People of the European race are the most sensitive to the Sun - for them, protection is required already at index 3, and 6 is considered dangerous.

    At the same time, for Indonesians and African Americans this threshold is 6 and 8, respectively.

    Who is most influenced by the Sun?

      People with fair hair

      skin tone

      People with many moles

      Residents of mid-latitudes during a holiday in the south

      Winter lovers

      fishing

      Skiers and climbers

      People having family history skin cancer

    In what weather is the sun more dangerous?

    It is a common misconception that the sun is dangerous only in hot and clear weather. You can also get sunburned in cool, cloudy weather.

    Cloudiness, no matter how dense it may be, does not reduce the amount of ultraviolet radiation to zero. In mid-latitudes, cloudiness significantly reduces the risk of getting sunburned, which cannot be said about traditional beach holiday destinations. For example, in the tropics, if in sunny weather you can get sunburned in 30 minutes, then in cloudy weather - in a couple of hours.

    How to protect yourself from the sun

    To protect yourself from harmful rays, follow simple rules:

      Spend less time in the sun during midday hours

      Wear light-colored clothing, including wide-brimmed hats

      Use protective creams

      Wear sunglasses

      Stay in the shade more on the beach

    Which sunscreen to choose

    Sunscreens vary in their degree of sun protection and are labeled from 2 to 50+. The numbers indicate the proportion of solar radiation that overcomes the protection of the cream and reaches the skin.

    For example, when applying a cream labeled 15, only 1/15 (or 7 %) of the ultraviolet rays will penetrate the protective film. In the case of cream 50, only 1/50, or 2 %, affects the skin.

    Sunscreen creates a reflective layer on the body. However, it is important to understand that no cream can reflect 100% of ultraviolet radiation.

    For everyday use, when the time spent under the Sun does not exceed half an hour, a cream with protection 15 is quite suitable. For tanning on the beach, it is better to take 30 or higher. However, for fair-skinned people it is recommended to use a cream labeled 50+.

    How to Apply Sunscreen

    The cream should be applied evenly to all exposed skin, including the face, ears and neck. If you plan to sunbathe for a long time, then the cream should be applied twice: 30 minutes before going out and, additionally, before going to the beach.

    Please check the cream instructions for the required volume for application.

    How to Apply Sunscreen When Swimming

    Sunscreen should be applied every time after swimming. Water washes off the protective film and, reflecting Sun rays, increases the dose of ultraviolet radiation received. Thus, when swimming, the risk of sunburn increases. However, due to the cooling effect, you may not feel the burn.

    Excessive sweating and wiping with a towel are also reasons to re-protect the skin.

    It should be remembered that on the beach, even under an umbrella, the shade does not provide complete protection. Sand, water and even grass reflect up to 20% of ultraviolet rays, increasing their impact on the skin.

    How to protect your eyes

    sunlight, reflected from water, snow or sand, can cause a painful burn to the retina of the eyes. To protect your eyes, wear sunglasses with a UV filter.

    Danger for skiers and climbers

    In the mountains, the atmospheric “filter” is thinner. For every 100 meters of height, the UV index increases by 5 %.

    Snow reflects up to 85 % of ultraviolet rays. In addition, up to 80 % of the ultraviolet reflected by the snow cover is reflected again by clouds.

    Thus, in the mountains the Sun is most dangerous. It is necessary to protect your face, lower chin and ears even in cloudy weather.

    How to deal with sunburn if you get sunburned

      Use a damp sponge to moisten the burn.

      Apply anti-burn cream to the burned areas

      If your temperature rises, consult your doctor; you may be advised to take an antipyretic

      If the burn is severe (the skin swells and blisters greatly), seek medical attention

In accordance with the administrative-territorial division of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, which literally controls the city, the center of the Shaumyan region of the NKR. In accordance with the administrative-territorial division of the Republic of Azerbaijan, it is the administrative center of the Kelbajar region of Azerbaijan.

    This territory is part of the so-called Nagorno-Karabakh Security Belt, located around outside the originally declared territory of the NKR, but controlled by Armenian forces since 1993.

    Etymology

    The toponym "Kelbajar" previously had the form "Kablchr", consisting of the ancient Turkic " kevli" - the mouth of the river and " black" - fortress.

    Story

    Antiquity and Middle Ages

    Santim.. more: History of Nagorno-Karabakh and Dopyana (dynasty)

    Artsakh and Syunik - provinces of Greater Armenia

    Armenian monastery Dadivank, 1214

    In the ancient period, the territory on which Kelbajar is located was part of the Gavar Vaykunik province of Artsakh of Great Armenia (from the 4th to the beginning of the 8th centuries - Albanian province - a military-administrative district as part of Sasanian Iran).

    From the 9th to the 16th centuries it was part of the Armenian principality of Khachen, and after its collapse - the Armenian melikdom of Jraberd, 1st of the 5 melikdoms of Khamsa.

    In the 14th century, Upper Khachen was invaded by Khan Tokhtamysh and Tamerlane, and in the 15th century it became part of the Turkic states of Kara-Koyunlu and Ak-Koyunlu. At the beginning of the 16th century, Khachen became part of the Safavid country. Administratively, the Khachen district was part of the Ganja-Karabakh Belyarbekate (later the Ganja Khanate), ruled by the Ziyad Ogly clan from the Qajar tribe. Their power, however, extended mainly to lowland Karabakh, whose population was Muslimized and Turkified, while Nagorno-Karabakh, where Armenians continued to live, remained in the hands of Armenian rulers.

    The Kurdish tribes were resettled by the Persian authorities in the area located between Nagorno-Karabakh and Zangezur (in the area of ​​the Kalbajar, Kubatli and Lachin regions of Azerbaijan), around 1600. This move was intended to weaken the ties of the Armenian rulers of Nagorno-Karabakh with the main Armenian territories. Part of the later Muslim (Kurdish and Turkic) population of the Kelbajar region (who lived here before the Karabakh war of the early 1990s) were thus descendants of nomadic settlers from the lowland Karabakh.

    Nadir Shah, who took the Persian throne in 1736, in order to weaken his personal enemies - the Ganja khans loyal to the Safavid house - resettled almost all the Qajars (Otuzik, Javanshir and Kebirli tribes) from Karabakh to Khorasan and removed the Khamsa meliks from subordination to Ganja. In 1747, however, the death of Nadir Shah led to the collapse of the country he had created, the return of exiled Turkic tribes from Khorasan and the loss of independence of the melikdoms of Khamsa, which fell under the subordination of the Karabakh Khanate created by Panah Ali Khan.

    In 1805, the Khanate was annexed to the Russian Federation, and in 1822 it was abolished and transformed into a province. Russian Empire. In 1840, the Karabakh province was renamed the Shusha district, which became part of the Caspian region, from 1846 - to the Shemakha province (renamed Baku in 1859), and from 1867 - to the Elizavetpol province.

    XX century

    According to the “Caucasian Calendar” of 1912, 300 Azerbaijanis, indicated in the calendar as “Tatars,” lived in the village of Kelbajar in the Jevanshir district of the Elizavetpol province.

    In 1930, the Kelbajar region with an area of ​​1936 km was formed as part of the Azerbaijan SSR, the administrative center of which was the urban-type settlement of Kelbajar, which received the status of a city in 1980. As of 1970, the population of Kelbajar numbered 5 thousand.

    With the beginning of the Karabakh War, the Kelbajar region, sandwiched between the NKR and Armenia and separated from the rest of Azerbaijan in the north by a mountain range, found itself in a semi-blockade. Since the summer of 1992, the situation of the local population has improved somewhat, as the Azerbaijanis occupied the northern part of the NKR and communications through Mardakert were restored. As a result of the Armenian forces recapturing the Mardakert region, the Kelbajar region was almost completely blocked (since the passes were still covered with snow). Before the occupation of the region by Armenian forces, the population of the region was about 60 thousand, primarily Azerbaijanis and Kurds, who were later expelled against their will from their personal homes. During the operation to capture the area, Armenian forces used violence against civilians, fired at them, and took them hostage.

    Post-war period

    Since then, the area has been almost completely controlled by the NKR. Its former population is located on the territory of Azerbaijan as refugees. The housing they left behind in the Kelbajar region was occupied by Armenian refugees from the Shahumyan region, which was occupied by Azerbaijani forces in the summer of 1992[ source not specified 430 days] .

    According to information from Armenian sources, during excavations carried out in Kelbajar by an archaeological expedition led by Dr. historical sciences Hamlet Poghosyan on the site of the Khadaberd monastery (XII-XIII centuries), more than 180 khachkars and reliefs depicting a cross were found [ non-authoritative source 430 days] .
