About Ashnak
The village of Ashnak is the new homeland of people from Sassoun in 1915-23, after the Armrenian Genocide. This village seems to be a small model of the Sassoun province of Western Armenia, housing people displaced from about 35 villages of Sassoun. Later, some of them moved out of the village to other places. About 18 villages of the former Sassoun are represented in Ashnak. Ashnak village is one of the largest villages of Talin region. The residents of the village came from about 35 villages of Psank, Khut-Brnashen, Talvorik, Kharzan regions of Sassoun, as well as from Mush and Khnus. Some of these names of the former regions of Sassoun became the names of the neighborhoods of Ashnak village (for example, Talvorik neighborhood, after the most famous region of Sassoun).
