history
Little is known about the early history of the old Ingush village; Until the 20th century, the current parts of the municipality Armchi and Furtoug were more important. The name is given either with the Arabic name Jarrah ( Arabic جراح, DMG Ǧarrāḥ , also Jarrah ) or the Ingush жӀар (dschar) for “cross”. After the annexation of the region to the Russian Empire , the place belonged to their Terek Oblast from 1860 , and within this first to the Ingush Okrug , from 1888 to the Okrug Sunscha , in which the areas predominantly inhabited by Ingush and Russian Cossacks were united, from 1905 ( legally confirmed in 1909) with the renewed division according to ethnic aspects to the Okrug Nazran (with seat in Vladikavkas ). In Russian, the spellings Джайрах (Dschairach) and Джерах (Jerach) as well as the designation Верхний Джерах ( Verkhny Jerach, meaning “Upper Jerach” - was located below in the valley of the Terek on the Georgian military road since 1803 Russian fortification Dzerakhovskoye ) in use.
After several administrative redesigns in the early Soviet period, the village came within the Ingush Autonomous Oblast, which had existed since 1924, to its Prigorodny rajon in 1926 (initially based in Vladikavkas, later in Basorkino , today's Tschermen), from 1934 within the Chechen-Ingush Autonomous Oblast , from 1936 the Checheno-Ingush ASSR . With the dissolution of the Autonomous Republic and the deportation of all Ingush and Chechens in the area 1944, the Prigorodny rayon came to the North Ossetian ASSR , and Dscheirach was after the near darial gorge in Darial renamed. After the restoration of autonomy in 1957, this part of the Prigorodny rajon was returned to Checheno-Ingushetia, the majority remained with North Ossetia; the village was given its old name again and was assigned to the newly formed Pervomaiski rajon based in Pervomaiskoje (today again Galaschki ). In the 1960s, this was dissolved and the Sunschenski rajon based in Ordzhonikidsewskaja (today the city of Sunscha ). After the formation of the Republic of Ingushetia, the Dscheirachski rajon was expelled in October 1993, and this was the first time that Dscheirach was the seat of a higher administrative unit.
