Şeidlər
human settlement in Azerbaijan

Şeidlər is a village in Shamkir District, Azerbaijan. It was separated from the Qasımalılar village administrative-territorial unit and established as its own unit, centered on Şeidlər on 5 October 1999.
History
Şeidlər was formed in the 1930s when the uğuzlu (also known as hacılar), zeynallar, and kəlbhəsənli clans were resettled to an area known as Şeidlər yeri. The village takes its name from that area, itself believed to derive from the word şəhid, meaning martyr.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Şeidlər” as human settlement in Azerbaijan. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as human settlement in Azerbaijan. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 21, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q8082457. Authority coordinates are 40.778, 45.931. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1999.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
