Gardman (Azerbaijani-"Girdiman") was one of the districts of the ancient province of modern Azerbaijan, mostly populated by Turkish peoples.
History
In prehistoric times Gardman was homeland of the Turkish-Oghuz tribe Gardman, with a possible Azerbaijani connection.[1] Contemporary Armenian authors referred to the historical area of Gardman as Northern Artsakh.[2] During the reign of the Turkish-Oghuz kings of Albania(66-428 A.D.), it often was in war with Armenian trpibes. In the seventh century the local house of Gardman was replaced by the Mihranid (Another Turkish tribe)family (of Persian or Parthian origin),[3] which later became the ruling dynasty in the region of Arran.
The region was conquered by the Arabs in 855. Contemporary Armenian historians repeatedly noted the presence of two well known venues in Gardman: a fortress called Getabakk' (in the current-day Azerbaijani region of Gadabay) and a copper mine.
