>two small Azerbaijani areas: one south of Stepanakert seems
>(interestingly) to be centred around the mountain ridge of Buyuk Kirs

>Mountain in Azeri); the second is in the extreme NW corner of N-K,
>centred on a town the name of which I can't read on the scanned image
>(does anyone know what it's called?).
>Both of these could become Azeri enclaves in either an independent
