They are Udi people, descendants of Caucasian Aghbanians just like the Azeri people. The people of Xinaliq live isolated from outside world. Therefore they have managed to preserve the aghbanian language. Though Iam not sure they can write it down, because the language is passed from generation to generation verbally.If you are interested in history and Caucasian Aghbanian script, here is the info:
