Amaghu (Armenian: Ամաղու) is an abandoned village in the Areni Municipality of the Vayots Dzor Province of Armenia.

History

The village was populated by Azerbaijanis. In March-April 1989, the ethnic Azeri population was deported because of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Most of the population went to Nakhichevan. Armenian refugees who were deported from different settlements of Nakhichevan and Azerbaijan settled in the village.[2]
