== History==
(詳細はMovses Kaghankatvatsi, in the 1st century A.D. St. Elishe, a disciple of Thaddeus of Edessa, arrived to a place called Gis, where he built a church and recited a liturgy. The church became the "spiritual center and the place of enlightenment of people of the East". On his way from Gis St. Elishe was killed near the pagan altar in small Zerguni valley by unknown people.〔(Movses Kaghankatvatsi. History of Albania. Book 1, Chapter VI )〕
According to the Baku eparchy of the Russian Orthodox Church, the location of Gis mentioned by Movses Kaghankatvatsi is identified with the present-day Kish, located on the left bank of river Kura, in Shaki district of Azerbaijan.〔(Official website of Baku eparchy of Russian Orthodox Church. Architectural heritage of Caucasian Albania )〕 The Church of Kish was the first church built in Caucasian Albania and in the Caucasus.〔(Interview with Russian Orthodox Baku and Caspian Bishop Alexander )〕〔(Movses Kaghankatvatsi, ''open citation'', Book 2, Chapter XLVIII )〕 However, according to Armenian commentator Karapetian, the geographical position of Kish does not seem to match that described by Kaghankatvatsi. Karapetian believes that they have identified Gis as the village of Bomen / Bum 60 km to the south-east of Kish, in Gabala district, Uti (Utik) province.〔(KISH_eng )〕
According to Georgian historiography, in the 10th century, the population of Kish converted to the Georgian Orthodox Church. Known at the time as part of Sourb Asvatzatzin Church, Kish turned into a residence of Georgian bishop, functioning till 17th century.〔(Samvel Karapetian, "Research on Armenian Architecture", Online Version )〕 The population of Kish converted to Islam in 1720s; however, when Russia later took possession of the region, some villagers returned to Christian faith. In 1836, the Albanian church, along with all active churches in this region that were not Georgian or Russian, was incorporated into the Armenian Apostolic Church, and the Church of Kish was refounded in 1860s and became a place of pilgrimage due to the belief that it was associated with St. Elishe (Yegishe).〔
