Etymology

The name Quzlu (Oghuzlu/Ghozlu/Qozlu) comes from Oghuz Turks.[1][5] An alternative theory about the etymology of this name is because the place has many walnut trees and walnut in Azeri and Persian language is called Qoz and Joz, then the name of the place means the place with many walnut trees.

Qozlu in 1987, 1992 and 1997 respectively had 403, 375 and 295 inhabitants.[1] In 2007, it had 222 inhabitants.[6]
