Sayat-Nova (hy|Սայաթ-Նովա; az|Aşağı Necili) is a village in the Masis Municipality of the Ararat Province of Armenia. The town was populated by Azerbaijanis before the exodus of Azerbaijanis from Armenia after the outbreak of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. In 1988-1989 Armenian refugees from Azerbaijan settled in the village. It was renamed Sayat-Nova after the poet by the same name.
