Historical Usage
The name Jerwan is believed to be derived from the Arabic word 'Jarwan', which means 'the place of the well'. This name was used during the early Islamic period, particularly during the Umayyad Caliphate (661-750 AD), when the city was an important stopover on the trade route between Damascus and the Persian Gulf.
Umayyad Caliphate (661-750 AD)
Another theory suggests that Jerwan is named after Dhu Al-Jarwaan, a famous tribal leader from the Banu Rabi'ah tribe who was a prominent figure during the early Islamic period. He is said to have led his tribe to settle in the area around Jerwan and established a caravan station there. The name of the city may have been derived from his tribal name 'Jarwaan'.
