==Etymology and History== Under Russian rule, from 1870 through 1917, the village formed a part of the Sharur-Daralayaz uezd. In 1961 the village was renamed in honour of Jalil Mammadguluzade, the writer and satirist who wrote his first allegorical work (Çay dəstgahı) while serving as a teacher (October 13, 1887 – January 13, 1890) at the local school. The name of the village is a toponym memorial.
