A village with an ancient history on the right bank of the Okchu river in Gafan district. Often this village is also called Pir­davidan. The village in this land, which is Babak's homeland, is connected with the name of the hero Javidan. Some­times this mausoleum is called Pirba­vi­dan. The monument is located in the ce­metery of Pirjavidan village in the south of Gajaran city of Gafan region. Accor­ding to folk etymology, the mausoleum is connected with the name of Javidan, the teacher of the hero Babak.

It means “Pir belonging to Javidan, Ja­vidan’s pir”.

Azerbaijani ge­nerals and peop­le have fought for these histo­ri­cal lands for hundreds of years and have inherited their homeland. The existence of Ja­vidan's mauso­leum in the area where he died is a myth that his­tory cannot de­ny.
