(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.
