Zakataly (Zagatala), a district in northwestern Azerbaijan, was home to a community of Mountain Jews (Gorskie Evrei, or Judeo-Tats) in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. These Tat-speaking (Iranian) Jews inhabited several villages in the Caucasus and were distinguished by their specific cultural practices. The majority of them emigrated to Israel after 1991.
