"On the slope of Mount Ayu" is one of the short stories of the Armenian writer Aksel Bakunts, included in the collection "Mtnadzor", published in 1927.

The story depicts a village in Zangezur, probably Yerishen, in 1914-1918, and the city where the main character Peti "was once", Goris. Peti had a prototype, and the story-prehistory. The story describes the events related to the epidemic of cattle that broke out in Zangezur in 1904-05, and the terrible war that took Peti's life.
