Sorry for the delay, but here's the info

of months ago in Vienna:

In my old Soviet atlas (1987), I can find more enclaves in/outside of
Nagornyy Karabakh:
Inside N.K. (so part of Azerbaijan proper):
A) In the extreme n.w. part of N.K.
B) Near the Byoyuk Kirs mountain (the transcription is from Russian
and therefore not correct, I know)
C) In the extreme s. part of N.K., about 10 km n.w. of the Azeri town
of Dzhebrail (again transcribed from Russian)
D) Approx. 12 km north of east of the N.K. town of Krasnyy Bazar
(this is a Russian town name, possibly renamed later) and 12 km s. of
the N.K. town of Martuni
Outside N.K. (so part of N.K.):
E) Approx. 17 km south of enclave B
F) Approx. 10 km s.e. of the Azeri town of Agdam

In none of the enclaves a settlement is depicted.

P.S. the name of the area is Nagornyy Karabakh in Russian (in proper,
scientific, transliteration: Nagornyj Karabach). The reason 'Nagorno'
came into use is that the old full name in Russian was Nagorno-
Karabakhskaya Avtonomnaya Oblast (Autonomous Province of N.K.). In
the first, short form, Nagornyy is an adjective and has the
appropriate suffix, in the latter, full form, Nagorno is an adverb,
because Karabakhskaya is the adjective here to Oblast. Sorry for this
little grammar lesson....
