history

The village already existed in the form of several smaller settlements in the 12th century, was destroyed during the Mongol invasion and was repopulated by residents of the former village of Suleran-Chür until the middle of the 14th century. At the end of the 18th century, the Kasikumuch khanate was established in Kumuch , which is almost 60 km north-west, and in 1812 the Kjuri khanate, with its capital in Kurach, 25 km south-east, was protected by the Russian Empire , but it retained a certain degree of independence. After the official annexation of the Khanate to the Russian Empire as a result of the Caucasus War in 1864, Tpig came to the Kjurinski Okrug (based in Kassumkent ) of the Dagestan Oblast formed in 1861 . Towards the end of the 19th century, the village within the Okrug became the seat of an Agulian section (Agulski uchastok).

As part of the administrative reorganization of the Dagestani ASSR , which was founded in 1921 , the section first opened on November 22, 1928 in the Kurachski canton (from June 3, 1929 Rajon). On September 1, 1934, the agulic settlement area of ​​the Kurachski rajon and smaller neighboring areas were again formed into an Agulski national rajon (Agulski nazionalny rajon) based in Tpig and converted into today's common Rajon at the end of the 1930s.
