Armavir (known as Oktemberyan) is a city located in western Armenia. The 1989 census reported that the city had a total population of 46,900, but this has declined considerably: the 2001 census counted 32,034; estimate for 2008 is 26,387. It is the capital of the Armavir province (marz). The city of Armavir in Russia, founded by Armenians in the 19th century, was named after this city. The historical city of Armavir, a capital of the Armenian kingdom in c. 190-160 BC, was located to the south, southwest of Haykavan; an even older center, the Urartian town of Argištihinili, was located at Armavir Blur, to the southwest.
