Arpunk (Armenian: Արփունք; Azerbaijani: Kəsəmən, anglicized: Kasaman) is a village in the Gegharkunik Province of Armenia. Three kilometers southeast of the village is a 15th-century church.[2] The village was populated by Azerbaijanis before the exodus of Azerbaijanis from Armenia after the outbreak of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. In 1988-1989 Armenian refugees from Azerbaijan settled in the village.[3]
