Current situation

The Orberian dy­­nasty, to which Dirsa Khan belonged, was a descen­dant of Turan. They settled in the territory of Iberia BC, took refuge in the Eldagiz dynasty in the 12th cen­tury, and later founded the Su­nik Orbelian dy­nasty.

Information:

Dirsa (Tarsa) Khan was one of the most famous judges of the Orberian dynasty, who ruled the Daraleyaz-Zangazur territo­ries in the 13th-14th centuries. Dirsa Khan, who erected the Anabat tomb, died in 1290 in the Arpa village of Darelaez and was buried in the Anabat tomb be­lon­ging to this generation. Apart from Dirsa Khan, his wife Mina Khatun, his daugh­ter-in-law Arus Khatun, his son Can Buğa (Buğaç) and others were also buried in the Anabat tomb.

After the depor­tation of 1988, the Anabat tomb was destroyed by the Arme­nians and its ruins remained.
