What is "kond"

Kond (, meaning long hill in Armenian; formerly, Tapabashi) is one of the oldest quarters of Yerevan. It is situated within the boundaries of the modern-day Kentron District of the capital of Armenia. According to Hovhannes Shahkhatunyants, an Armenian historian, Kond is located at the western and southern hillsides and foot of a rocky hill with similar name. Its western border has historically been the Hrazdan River, and its northern border, the Kozern Cemetery.

Kond (Könd, Kund, Kend, Kende or Kurszán) was – according to chronicler Anonymus – one of the seven chieftains of the Magyars (Hungarians), who led the Hungarians to the Carpathian Basin in 895.

Probably he was the father of Kurszán. His second son, Kaplon was the founder of the kindred of Kaplon.
