In Yiddish, Antazave A county town in the Zarasai district, about 10 km northeast of Dusetos. In 1923 there were 101 non-Jews in the town and amongst them 15 Jews. In 1939, of the 7 telephones that were in the town, 3 were owned by Jews. In June of 1941, when the Germans conquered Lithuania, the fate of the Jews in Antazave was the same as the fate of the other Jews in the area.
