Vardan Aygektsi or Vardan of Aygek (Armenian: Վարդան Այգեկցի, died 1250) was an Armenian author, and priest. Among his works are his Fables and a Geography, both of which have been mistakenly attributed by some to Vardan Areveltsi. In 1668, an extensive collection of Aygektsi's fables, under the title Aghvesagirq (Book of the Fox) was published in Amsterdam. The naming of the collection was based on the fact that the key character in most of the fables was a fox.

Among his works are his Fables and a Geography, both of which have been mistakenly attributed by some to Vardan Areveltsi. Aygektsi was born in Ma'arrata, a village near Aleppo. Vardan lived for a time in Duluke (Doliche) in Cilician Armenia. He was educated in the Monastery of , and received the title of vardapet. In 1198 he took part in the coronation ceremony of King Levon II. From 1210 he was at the monastery of Aygek, in the Black (Amanus) Mountains. His Fables, commonly known as Aghvesagirq, are said to have been only in part from his pen, many additions having been made by others. He died in 1250. In 1668, an extensive collection of Aygektsi's fables, under the title Aghvesagirq (Book of the Fox) was published in Amsterdam.

  • Варда́н Айгекци́ (арм. Վարդան Այգեկցի; конец XII века, с. Ма­ра­та, Си­рия — не ра­нее 1229, Ай­гек, Ки­ли­кия) — армянский баснописец и проповедник конца XII—начала XIII вв. Родился в Сирии, в селении Марата, расположенном недалеко от Алеппо. Некоторое время Вардан жил в Дюлюке (Доличе). Изгнанный оттуда, он перебрался в монастырь Айгек (Киликия), расположенный в Чёрных горах (Аманус). Умер примерно 1229 года. В свои послания и проповеди Вардан Айгекци вводил басни-притчи, из которых составил сборник. Его последователи вплоть до XVII в. обогащали этот сборник новыми баснями, притчами, новеллами и анекдотами. Так возникли «Вардановские сборники», содержащие более 500 басен. Часть рукописей дошла до нас под заглавием «Лисья книга». Басни остроумны, едки и лаконичны, содержат картины социальной жизни общества того времени. Древнейшее издание «Лисьей книги» выпущено в 1668 в Амстердаме. (ru)
