- Information
The name Shidli is an ethnotoponym. Until the events of 1988, Shidli village was the only purely Azerbaijani village in Vedi district. In the area of Shidli village, there was a large ram stone in the area called Gochdashi between the Gakhanov canal and the Mashadi Seyfulla ditch, and a small horse-sized stone horse statue with a saddle and swimming called Atdashi in the old cemetery of the village called Sunnu cemetery.
Historical horse stone and ram stone sculptures prove that these places have been a Turkic-Oghuz homeland since ancient times.
