Էրզրումի նահանգի Քղի գավառակի հայության տեղահանությունը. Քղիից դեպի Դեր Զոր (Deportation of Armenians from the Sub-District of Keghi, Erzerum Province: From Keghi to Der Zor)
Kazaryan, Anna A. · 2024
Drawing on archival sources, houshamatyans and survivor testimony collections, Kazaryan reconstructs events of 1914–1915 in the Keghi sub-district of Erzerum province. She traces the Ottoman government's persecutory policy against the local Armenians, the methods used to carry out the deportation, the violence inflicted along the route, and the principal massacre sites. Her argument is methodological as well as documentary: studying deportation and annihilation at the level of individual districts, and even single villages, yields a fuller understanding of how the Genocide was actually implemented.
