Zovuni

Зовуни · Զովունի

Zovuni is an abandoned village in Aragatsotn province, near Aparan, submerged beneath the waters of the Aparan Reservoir since the site was vacated in 1965.

It was founded in 1828 by Armenian migrants from Akori, a village in Western Armenia. The settlement lasted just under 140 years before the reservoir took its place.

Zovuni sits in Aragatsotn province near the town of Aparan, about 37 km north of Yerevan as the crow flies.
