Nakhichevan Eyalet was possibly an eyalet of the Ottoman Empire. Nakhichevan (Nahçivan) was recorded as a beylerbeylik in 1603.[1] In 1591, there were references to a beylerbeylik of Erivan and Nakhichevan, and scholar Donald E. Pitcher speculates that Nakhichevan may have never been a separate eyalet.[1]
