Abstract
Contrary to the current view that the state of Azerbaijan has no local historiography in the early centuries, and the beginning of it is attributed to later periods, the beginning of the local historiography of Azerbaijan has coincided with the other regions. In the surviving lists, it can be seen some scattered and temporary references to such histories. The local historiography of Azerbaijan began from the news of the conquests and continued throughout the next centuries with ups and downs; but most of these works were eliminated in the events of the time. Meanwhile, the factors influencing the development and continuity of the local historiography of Azerbaijan in some of the components have similarities and differences with other regions of Iran. The current study tried to investigate the course of local historiography of the city from the beginning of its formation to the onset of contemporary historiography by using descriptive- analytical method and using library resources. In addition to identifying the causes and areas of influence, clarifies its differences with other regions, and to answer the basic question of when began the local historiography in Azerbaijan and what are reasons for it?
