History
It was the first settlement of Chechen-Akkints in the Kumyk Plain. It was previously known as Shircha-Akka, Shircha-Evla, Yurt-Evla, and Yurt-Aukh.
Yurt-Aukh, as it was then called, was until 1944 a part of the Aukhovsky District. In 1944, during the deportation of Chechens to Central Asia, the locals were deported and Avars from the neighboring selo of Almak settled in their place.
In 1956, the Chechens were allowed to return to the Caucasus, but the local authorities prohibited their return directly to their ancestral villages in former Aukhovsky District. Only several years later the Chechens were able to start buying back their houses from the Avars.
On August 27, 2007, a clash between over one hundred Chechens and Avars took place in Kalininaul, resulting in eight people injured.
