Laqodexi
[edit]Laqodexi ("loqo" - meaning "plenty of water") is one of the southeastern districts of Georgia. The Tbilisi-Balakan highway passes through this area. The Nagrdzali State Reserve is located here. To the east, it borders Azerbaijan, to the north, it borders Dagestan, to the south, it borders Gurjaani and Signagi, and to the west, it borders the Kvareli district. Historically, Azerbaijanis have settled in the villages of Qabal, Gəncəli, Qaracalar, and Uzuntala. These villages are collectively known in the region as the Qabal ethnic group.
Qabal
[edit]Qabal is an ancient village in the Laqodexi district where Azerbaijanis reside. It is located 15 km west of the district center, between the Qabal and Beyisbandara rivers in the Alazani, at an altitude of 330 meters above sea level. Currently, there are 3 schools, 1 public mosque, 3 banks, and a municipality center in Qabal.
Toponymy
[edit]There are several theories regarding the origin of the name Qabal:
1. Qabal comes from the Russian word "kabala", meaning "enslavement, dependency, slavery, and an oppressive contract."
2. According to V. Badonashvili, the Ciauri and Kvallovani villages were settled along the Neyni river (Qabal river), and the similarity in names suggests that the word "Qabal" originated from there.
3. Some believe Qabal is related to the Azerbaijani city of Qabala. It is assumed that the inhabitants of this settlement originally came from Qabala, either due to migration or political reasons. They preserved the name of their homeland, naming their new settlement Qabal.
Qabal during the Second World War
[edit]During World War II (1939-1945), Georgia lost nearly 700,000 citizens. Between 1941 and 1945, 8306 people from Laqodexi district went to the front, including 400 from Qabal.
