THE BRIDGES OF ARTSAKH

Bridges in Banants

These bridges extend over one of the left tributaries of the river Artinajoor flowing through Banants Village, Karhat (Dashkesan) District, Northern Artsakh—a region that suffered deportation of its Armenian population in 1988 and has been annexed to Azerbaijan since then. Each of them has a semi-circular vault with a span length of 3 metres on average. The main building material used in their construction comprises undressed stone and mortar.
