My family is from Erzurum-Horasan and there is a village called "Ardos" there. Probably it was a former Armenian village...

It might be. I have not found enough descriptive information where the Alans settled. It could be somewhere in modern Turkey, Armenia or northern Iran. There is also information about other group of Alans who were hired by Vizantia to fight Turks in Erzurum area in about 14 BC. |

Lots of Alans settled in Brittany (NW France).
There are so many groups of Alans in the historical record that some scholars feel it necessary to point out that the links betwee the various groups are often very tenuous. |
