Armenian historian and geographer (1917–1989)

Tadevos Khachaturi Hakobyan (Armenian: Թադևոս Խաչատուրի Հակոբյան; 15 June 1917 – 15 October 1989) was a Soviet Armenian historian and geographer.

Biography[edit]

Hakobyan was born in 1917 in the village of Lernadzor, now in Armenia's southern province of Syunik. In 1940, he graduated from the Faculty of Geography and Geology of Yerevan State University (YSU). In 1942–43, he fought in the Eastern Front of World War II. He was the dean of the YSU's Faculty of Geography in 1955–57 and 1963–65. He then served as the chair of that department from 1962 to 1986. Most of his work was focused on the historical geography of Armenia. Together with Stepan Melik-Bakhshyan and Hovhannes Barseghyan, he authored the monumental five-volume Dictionary of Toponomy of Armenia and Adjacent Territories (Հայաստանի և հարակից շրջանների տեղանունների բառարան). He also authored several textbooks.^[1]
