	Artsakh from Ancient Time
		Artsakh, constituting a part of the above- mentioned state, was ruled by the Aranshakhiks local kin (the legend about the origin of Armenians says that the patriarch of this kin Aran is the descendant of the Armenians’ forefather-Hike).
		In 66-428’s AD Artsakh constituted part of the Arshakids Armenian kingdom; after its fall and partition between Persia and Byzantine it was annexed to the Albanian kingdom, situated to the north of the river Kur.
		In the 50th years of the 18th century, having taken advantage of the civil intestine of the Karabaghian princes and with the assistance of the Varanda Prince Shakhnasar II, one of the Turk-speaking tribe’s leaders Panakh was able to settle down in the fortress of Shushi.
