Abstract:	The features of aftershock manifestations of the 1988 Spitak earthquake have been studied in sufficient detail, but based on data for the first 2-3 years. The aftershock process is divided into highly active (1988-1991) and weakly active (1992 – present) periods. The overwhelming majority of 14,000 aftershocks (95%) and the predominant part of their energy (98%) were released during the active period. During the weakly active period, relative activation is observed in all the identified segments. Against the general background of attenuation of the number and strength of aftershocks, no patterns in their manifestation are observed
