Bahik (Persian: بهيك)[a] is a neighborhood in the village of Zula Bahik[4] in Chahriq Rural District of Kuhsar District in Salmas County, West Azerbaijan province, Iran.
History
[edit | edit source]The "Village of Bahik" is a protocol signed in Constantinople in 1913 which drew most of the modern Turkey-Iran border. The agreement which was signed in the presence of Iranian, Ottoman, Russian, and British delegates stipulated that the village of Bahik, in addition to a number of others, remain as a part of Persia, modern day Iran.[5]
After the 2006 National Census, Bahik was merged with the village of Zula to form the new village of Zula Bahik.[4]
