Ayrınc (also Ayrynj, Ayrindzh until 2003[1]) or Arinj (Armenian: Առինջ, romanized: Aṙinǰ)[2] is a village and municipality in the Shahbuz District of Nakhchivan, Azerbaijan.

There are a secondary school, a library, a club, a kindergarten and a medical center in the village.

[2][6] According to Azerbaijani sources, the local population were deported from the Arnyj village of the Yeghegnadzor region of Armenia in 1948–50.

[4] According to Armenian sources, the Armenian population of the village was expelled by Azerbaijanis during inter-ethnic conflicts in the 1970s and 1980s moved to several surrounding settlements of Yerevan, eventually founding the suburb of the same name in Armenia's Kotayk Province just outside of the capital.

During the research work in one of the rooms (6х4 m) ceramic products have been found both unglazed (fragments of jug and jar-type containers in the pink and yellowish colored) and glazed (bowl, plate fractures).
