1667թ. Հայ-ռուսական առեւտրական պայմանագիրը եւ Նոր Ջուղայի ինքնավար մարմինները

Abstract
It has been accepted by historians that the Armeno-Russian trade agreement of 1667 was signed by the representatives of the Russian government on one side, and the Armenian Trade Company of New Julfa (Persia) on the other. After carefully studying the available primary sources concerning the business and trade activities of the Armenian community of New Julfa and its administrative bodies, the author has concluded that there has never been an Armenian Trade Company in New Julfa in the European sense of it. R. Romotamsky and K. Loussigov, who signed the 1667 agreement, were the authorized representatives of the autonomous board of New Julfa. The ruling board of the autonomous city of New Julfa were represented by the twenty governors of the city's twenty independent quarters, by the head of the trade unions and by the kalantar (the board leader, who was elected by the community and approved by the Shah). All members of the ruling board came from the very rich merchant families, known as khojas. In the article also is discussed the rights, obligations, and activities of the ruling board of the autonomous city of New Julfa.
