Nobody knows the date of foundation of the village of Novye Atagi, but old people say that it was founded by representatives of two teips: Benoi and Gendargenoi. There are usually legends about events of the past. One of these legends about the origin of the villages of New and Starye Atagi was found in handwritten text in one of the magazines. Whether this legend has a real story or not is unknown, but we will share it with our readers. This legend says:

“...In an ancient era, the ancestors of the Chechens lived carefree and happily in the mountains and on the plains: they loved life, raised children, sowed and harvested crops. In this region the trees bent under the weight of fruits, and fat herds of cows and sheep grazed on the plains.

But one day, nomads with slanted eyes came to their land with war - evil and merciless. There was an overwhelming darkness of them. They destroyed villages and crops, burned houses, mercilessly killed women and children, and took prisoners into slavery. And so the elders gathered and decided to repel the enemy. Women, children and old people were sent to the forests and mountains so that the enemies would not reach them. The herds were driven to inaccessible places. The oldest and strongest went into battle first. They fought for a long time and killed many enemies, but there was no end to them, the mountaineers began to run out of strength. Then the young men went into battle - they fought even more desperately and they killed even more nomads, but the forces were unequal.

Among the mountaineers were two sisters who raised the spirit of the defenders and inspired them in battle with their songs and playing the harmonica. When the ranks of Chechen warriors began to thin out, the sisters gathered a small detachment of the same young girls, dressed in men's armor, took up weapons and rushed into battle to help their brothers. The girls fought no worse than the guys. In the heat of battle, one of the girls, struck by an enemy arrow, fell from her horse, and her helmet flew off her head, and her long braids were scattered across the grass. For a moment the battle stopped, and there was a roar among the nomads - they had never seen women fighting against them anywhere before. When this news reached the enemy leader, and he realized that not only the men of this people are brave, but also the women, he ordered the battle to be stopped and to retreat. He realized that this people can be destroyed, but cannot be defeated as long as they have such women. This military leader gained respect for the highlanders for their perseverance, love for their land and independence, and for the selfless devotion of their women.

And so they buried their dead soldiers, gathered the old people, women, children, put the wounded on carts, drove their herds and set off. They walked down the gorge, along the Argun River. When we descended into the valley, we saw a beautiful clearing, covered, like a carpet, with thick green grass, and the river bank was pleasing to the eye with its colorful colors. Two brave sisters, for a while, until the wounded men got stronger, took over leadership, conferred and decided that the eldest with part of the people would move to the left bank of the Argun and create a settlement there, and the younger with the rest would remain on the right bank to develop this side. And grateful people named these settlements in their honor for the courage and dedication they showed at the hour when the fate of the people was being decided. The names of these sisters (according to their age) were Bolshaya Atagi and Malaya Atagi, and in later times they were renamed Starye Atagi and New Atagi.”

In archival documents * there is a “Map of part of Lesser Chechnya in 1856” on which there is a list of 11 villages with the number of households:

Also in the documents is a geographical map of Lesser Chechnya, which is entitled “Map of the newly built villages of the inhabitants of the Chechen tribe,” on which there is a list of 16 villages and the number of households as of January 1, 1859:

It is interesting to analyze the changes that took place over three years (1856-1859) in some villages in terms of the number of households:

A significant increase in households and population took place during this period of time in the villages of Staro-Sunzhensky, Urus-Martan and Alkhan-Yurt.

In 1886, as elsewhere North Caucasus, the first population census took place in Chechnya. Archival documents testify to this. This census showed not only the quantitative composition, but also the social and property status of the population of Chechnya at that time. The lists indicate the first and last names of the villagers, their age, the presence of a house, property and livestock. In documents of the Archive Department of the Government of the Chechen Republic, f. 236, op. 1, no. 21 in the “Family lists of the village of Novye Atagi, 6th section of the Grozny district”, using the example of one village, the financial situation of the villagers is clearly visible. It is clear from the document that the population is generally not very wealthy. There were only a few wealthy families in the village at that time, and the rest somehow made ends meet. And this situation was in all the villages of Chechnya. There are not so many men over fifty in the census lists, as the twenty-five-year Caucasian War took its toll. Respected people from the villagers took part in this census: Tovmirza Dzhamirzaev, Utsu Khunkerkhanov, Azi Tsitsiev, Toka Ebiev, as well as the famous mullah Sugaip Goisumov from the village of Shali.

The census results show that the population of the village consists of 473 households (families). The male population is 1,118 and the female population is 1,084. The entire population of the village is 2202 people.

The document also reflects the total amount of property and livestock of the village:

Bee hives - 10 pcs., mills - 9 pcs., sawing machines - 3 pcs., manufacturing shops - 4 pcs., as well as bulls - 636 heads, cows - 364 heads, buffaloes - 195 heads, horses - 121 heads, calves - 37 heads, sheep - 750 heads, goats - 519 heads.

At one time, the holy Avliyas also lived in the village of New Atagi. For thirteen years (1871-1884) he lived and preached as the qadi of the village, known in Chechnya as Elakh-Molla (Alikhan Debirov) from the village of Terskoye (Ch1anti-Yurt). The Novo-Atagin people studied with him - the murids Modul and Mudar, who predicted many events of the present and future. At the place where Elah-Moll lived there is a ziart, and at the place where his children were buried there is a ziart for children. One of the jamaat mosques is named after him and the street on which this mosque is located also bears his name. Ziyart Mudara is located at the Benoev cemetery.

The biggest attraction of the village is the central mosque, built in 1912.

The Archive Department of the Government of the Chechen Republic stores copies of documents regarding the history of the construction of the mosque in the village. New Atagi in 1912 f. 236, op. 1, d. 238 on 8 sheets. The document is called: “Petition from the authorized representatives of the village of Novye Atagi, Vedeno Okrug, for the formation of a quitrent clause for the construction of a mosque” and dates from July 20 to September 25, 1912.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, residents of the village of Novye Atagi began to raise money for the construction of a mosque in the center of the village. In November 1911, at the next meeting of elders, a decision was finally made to begin construction. The funds collected were then only enough to purchase shell stone and lay the foundation. According to the recollections of old-timers of the village, stone began to be purchased back in 1904 (there is also a version that 1910). One of those who were involved in the purchase and delivery of stone were the brothers Sambikhadzhi and Askhab Arapkhanov.

The stone was brought to Grozny from Baku via railway in wagons (there is another version that they were unloaded at the railway station of the village of Ustar-Gordoi - the current city of Argun), and from there they were transported to the village on ox sleds. The wagons were unloaded quickly, because there were many who wanted to do a charitable deed; they say that there were even quarrels and fights over the right to take away the cargo. According to the stories of the villagers, the builders were extremely surprised by the pace of work and the desire of the Novoatagin residents to build a mosque for themselves. Having laid the foundation, the builders went home to rest a little until the villagers filled the niche with earth. Imagine their surprise when messengers were sent for them on the third day. The residents of Novoatagin worked with inspiration day and night. But in order to continue the construction of the mosque, it was necessary additional funds and then the villagers turned to the authorities with a request to lease 400 acres of public land for a period of 9 years in order to complete the construction of the mosque with the proceeds. The request was not lost. On the contrary, the people of Novoatagin were allocated land in a place called “Khakchumire” (as it appears in the document), but rather this means “Irzu hyokhu mettig” and it is not listed in the “Toponymy” of Akhmad Suleymanov.

Construction of the mosque was completed in August 1913. According to one version, as the old-timers of the village say, the mosque was built by the Cossacks and they rented the land, according to another - the Ingush, according to the third - the Armenians.

The residents of Novoatagin enthusiastically helped in any way they could. On the outside (along the upper perimeter of the wall) on the stones are written in Arabic script the names of the villagers who made their contribution to the construction of God's temple. Despite the fact that public land was not fully sufficient for the needs of the villagers, they without hesitation donated it to a charitable cause. The tsar's officer, Colonel Bellik, also contributed to the construction of this mosque...

... According to the now deceased Abdul-Halim Edilsultanov, a resident of the village Shamkhan Mehdiev said that he, as a teenager, was walking in front of the site where the mosque was being built, at that time a phaeton stopped there and a Russian officer got off. Introducing himself as Colonel Bellik, he asked: what kind of facility was being built here? When they explained it to him, he took a large sum of money out of his pocket and, without counting it, gave it to the construction of the mosque. In those days, wealthy people of different nationalities and religions engaged in charity, spending part of their income on science, culture, architecture, etc.

After the deportation of the Chechens in February 1944, the village was renamed Mayskoye, and a military hospital was placed in the mosque. After the war and until the 80s of the twentieth century, a warehouse was equipped here for a granary. The main central road, which was cut in two by a river flowing through the entire village, was continuous after the return of the Novoatagin residents, and the river was already flowing on one side of the road.

Novoataginsky s/s as of 1929-1930:

In the document: “List of populated places. 1929-1930” in the table, on page 84, Novo-Ataginsky Village Council is designated under serial number 46. It included:

In total, the Novoataginsky s/s included 1056 farms, and the population was 5151 people.

P.S. The text of this document contains errors in the names of settlements. Therefore, when reprinting, the author made amendments and additions to the etymology of the names of settlements.

Memorial in honor of the dead and missing participants of the Great Patriotic War in the village. New Atagi was installed on the initiative of schoolchildren from secondary school No. 1 from the “Search” group under the guidance of enthusiastic teacher Said Dadaev, who spent two years conducting search work, corresponding with the central archives of the USSR. Financing of the construction and opening of the memorial were carried out with the support of Novo-Agagin businessman Uvais Zaurbekov, as well as with funds from schoolchildren. The memorial included: a memorial stone and two marble slabs with lists of 143 participants in the Great Patriotic War. ***

In our village, traces of family members of the outstanding political and military figure of Chechnya in the 20s of the 19th century, Beibulat Taymiev, were also found.

In the summer of 2008, amateur researchers, including the above-mentioned Said Dadaev, Magomed Yandarbaev and the author of this article, accidentally discovered the gravestones of the daughters of the legendary Beibulat Taymiev - Dusri and Karkhi. Magomed Yandarbaev, it turns out, somehow knew Arabic and therefore thought that Beibulat’s own name and surname were written on one of the churtas. And the second devil was discovered during the research. Turning to the qadi of the village, Ibragim Khadzhimuradov, as a specialist Arabic, a translation of the inscription on the churta was obtained and this Arabic text was written down from stone to paper.

On one of the stones, Ibrahim read the following text: “This is the gravestone of the deceased Dusri, the daughter of the leader of Deg1ast (Chechnya) Beibulat, the son of Taima. May Allah forgive them! Date of death 1289 AH (1872).”

On another stone there was the following inscription: “The deceased Karkha is the daughter of the leader Deg1asta Beibulat son of Taima. May Allah forgive them. Amine! Date of death - 1296 Hijri (1879). These gravestones were found in the Genderganoi cemetery of the Singalhoy family, on the eastern outskirts of the village. During our eviction, a stable was built on the territory of this cemetery, and the foundation of the stable was churta stones brought from various cemeteries in the village. So to say that both daughters of Beibulat Taimiev are buried in this cemetery is doubtful. But the fact that Dusri and Karkha lived and died in our village is a fact.

In the village of Novye Atagi there are representatives of the Genderganoi teip (Bersin Nekye), who live near the central mosque (Bersanovs, Ismailovs and Edilovs). The representative of this teip, Lom-Ali Edilov, said that according to the stories of their elders, one of Beibulat’s daughters was married to their ancestor named Bachchi.

The central mosque has a history of almost a century. Its area is within 700 sq. m. The mosque was closed for the first time during the repression of clergy in Chechnya in 1937.

Under pressure from Western policies and realizing that the lack of spirituality of people does not benefit the state, the authorities met the believers halfway and began to allow the opening of mosques, temples and churches throughout the country.

During the opening of the mosque, it was visited by delegations from 24 countries: Jordan, Yemen, the United Arab Emirates, Kazakhstan, etc. Abdul-Baki Jamo, a member of the Parliament of the Majlis of Jordan, a descendant of the Chechen muhajirs, came. The last delegation was from Kazakhstan. These delegations were hospitably received by the village residents, the spouses Solta and Veta Saidov, who lived opposite the mosque.

This is the story of the village of Novye Atagi, which is dear to the heart of any Atagi resident. It is difficult to find such straight and beautiful streets and such good-natured people as in this village. The article was written sincerely, with love for the village and fellow villagers, and is dedicated to them.

Message from: Apaev Muslim
Atag1a (Atog1a - means the word urani, and the word Tog1 (wave) and chu (direction to a place or place), i.e. the place of the wave, hence the place where the wave dropped the bank, which means “lower river”

Another version of the word Atag1i is written, but is heard and said Atahi i.e. the word Ata (calm) hi (water) means water flowing over a level place. Or the word Ata also means to crush, which can be translated as crushing water.

This is where the word Atagi comes from. Old and New Atagi were translated incorrectly into Chech. language translated as Big and Small Atagi.

Message from: Apaev Muslim
Yokkha Atag1a, Sekhya Atag1a (Bolshiye Atagi, On this side Atagi, Old Atagi) is a large modern village 10 km south of Grozny, on the left bank of the Argun River, opposite Malye Atagi or otherworldly Atagi (Zhima Atag1a, Dekhya Atag1a). The name could be based on the two above-mentioned components. Atag1a today is called in the Chechen language - “river valley”.
The village of Starye Atagi is currently home to representatives of various ethnic clan societies who descended from the Argun Gorge at different times: Sattoy, Phamtoy, Keloy, Nihaloy, Vashtra, Hakka, Chinkha, Zumsa, Tumsa, Makazhoy, Gendar-Ganoy, Egashbatoy, Chungura, shikara, terla, hildehara, tsada-hara. Varanda.
The village of Starye Atagi is the largest rural settlement on the territory of the Chechen Republic, where almost all representatives of Chechen teips live.
The village of Starye Atagi is located approximately in the center of Chechnya in the foothills zone. It stretches along the left bank of the Argun River. On the opposite bank are the villages of Novye Atagi and Chiri-Yurt. Eight kilometers to the south, already surrounded by mountains, on the banks of the same river stands the village of Duba-Yurt. The Argun Gorge begins immediately behind it.
The highway running along Starye Atagi leads from the north from Grozny to the south through the Argun Gorge to the mountainous Shatoi region. Other roads, also passing through this village, lead east to the regional center of the city of Shali and west to the regional center of the city of Urus-Martan, as well as to a number of large foothill villages.
Despite the fact that the four above-mentioned villages are located nearby and live a largely common life, administratively they belong to different regions. Starye Atagi - to the Grozny rural district, New Atagi, Chiri-Yurt and Duba-Yurt - to the Shalinsky district.
Old Atagi and its inhabitants played a prominent role in the history of the Chechens. This is one of the oldest settlements on the territory of Chechnya. It was big populated area already in the 16th century. In connection with the events of the beginning of the 17th century. Old Atagi are mentioned in the book of Abbas-Quli-Aga Bakikhanov “Gulistan-Iran”, written on the basis of Arabic-language documents and published in 1926.
In 1826, one of the most brutal battles of the Caucasian War took place near the village, which did not reveal a winner. The Russian army was commanded by the hero of the Patriotic War of 1812, General A. Ermolov. The Chechen detachments were led by one of the famous leaders of the highlanders of that period, Beibulat Taimiev.
The historical landmark of the village is that after a 25-year confrontation in Caucasian War, in 1844, in the southern part of the village, the Vozdvizhenskaya fortress was erected, called the foothill gates.
On the western side of the village there is a monument to the hero of the civil war Aslambek Sharipov (at the site of his death), and the central street of the village is named after the hero of the Great Patriotic War Khampasha Nuradilov.
Defenders of the Brest Fortress: Anzorov Zaina, Bekaev Sultan, Sadaev Andarbek, Bersanukaev Abdu-Hamid, Kantaev Magomed. Edilsultanov A. Serbiev brothers Raid and Salman, Nazyrov Shama.

At the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries, Starye Atagi played important role in the socio-political and cultural life of Chechnya.

Poem "I am a son, I am from the Atagin family"

Oh, my proud gray-haired Chechnya,
You are the only one in the Caucasus.
The land of my soul is native,
Always visible on the horizon.

There's white cotton tight
Mountain tops made of snow faces,
What they look at from the heights of heaven
On flocks of clouds and birds.

Gray hair flows down
Crystal purity down,
Bashlama slopes are irrigated
From the springs preparing the breeze.

Having gathered together all the origins,
In one fist of seething waters,
Argun descends in the stream,
Forming a gathering in the gorge.

And at the foot of the mountain range,
In the lower reaches, near the Argun Gorge,
My homeland begins
I am the son of the Bolshoi-Ataginsky village.

Nature has endowed the region with talent.
And I want to list my sons,
What the motherland raised in the village.
Spiritual leaders - fathers.

Tambi-Usman, Yusup-Mulla,
They taught Islam.
Here the Quraysh found their homeland,
People love them, old people remember them.

Talented people of culture:
Muslim Magamaev, singer,
And Esambaev Makhmud,
Dancer of the world, well done.

The language of the Chechens through the pen
Lay down on paper in yarn,
Weaving life into a spindle,
There are also poets and writers:

Khalid Oshaev, Akhmad Nazhaev
and Salmurzaev Magomed,
Abdul-Khamid Khamidov
and Yandarbiev
Khamzat, he is still with us today,
Grandfather celebrates his anniversary.

And yet, all the names cannot be counted,
We remember the famous among the people.
Now it is clear? Why is it such an honor?
To say - I am a son, I am from the Atagin family.

Muslim!
I had three aunts/dendeyizhri/, now they are gone/Dala gech doyla tsarna/
They told a lot about the village, about the history of the village, and so many details!
Today I regret not keeping a record of their stories.
My father knew a lot of details and historical facts.
The older generation passes away, taking with them valuable knowledge.
I absolutely love my native village, Atagi.
This is one of the poems that I dedicated to the Old Atagi,
The very first is a song performed by our fellow villager Kheda Khamzatova “Yokkha Atag1a”, it was written in 1973. Then this song was sung at school parties by girls from Wed. school No. 1, where I worked in those years.
I enjoyed reading the article. Cases of reza hulliyla.
I rejoice when reading about Starye Atagi. Now his glory has temporarily hidden in the shadows.
Soon again his name will bask in the rays of well-deserved glory! Dala muklah!
