4) H.H. The Most Brilliant Prince Taimurazi (s/o Queen Eleni). Appointed as the first Metropolitan of Kutais, Patriarch-Catholicos of Georgia as Antoni I from 1745. Converted to Roman Catholicism ad expelled from Georgia 1755, emigrated to Russia, where Catherine the Great appointed him as Archbishop of Vladimir and Hierapolis in 1764. He d. unm. at Tiflis, 29 February 1788 o.s. (or 19 March 1790) (bur. Mtzkheta Monastery).

Nevertheless, there were several reasons why Erekle might prove amenable to the idea of a Russian alliance. Erekle's cousin, the Catholicos-Patriarch of Eastern Georgia, Antoni I, was a trusted adviser and counsellor to the king. Antoni had spent several years in Russia, had from time to time represented Erekle in St. Petersburg, and was a strong proponent of the ‘Russian orientation’ at the royal court. Gvosdev 32 Finally, Erekle and his cousin Patriarch Antoni were possessed of a grand vision for the restoration of Georgian greatness. With Russian military help, it would be possible not only to secure existing Georgian territories from attack, but to liberate other Georgian and Orthodox Christian territories under direct Persian or Ottoman control. Gvosdev 33

The Church played an important role in this process. On 20 September 1783, the day that the Treaty was formally and publicly announced to the people of Tbilisi, the Catholicos-Patriarch Antoni, Metropolitan Germanos of Tbilisi, and another archbishop conducted a service to celebrate the signing of the pact. Gvosdev 60

Rayfield 122

In the intellectual life of the nation the Georgian Orthodox Church continued to play the leading part. It was fortunate in having as its head through most of Erekle's reign a catholicos-patriarch of the caliber of Antoni I. Antoni had occupied for some years an archbishopric in Russia, and was a man of broad vision and sympathies. His Georgian grammar is a landmark in the study of the language. He was versed in Russian and in the classics. In 1762, he translated into Georgian, F. C. Baumeister's Elementa philosophiae recentioris under the title of A\hali filosofia, and introduced into Georgia the philosophical system of Christian Wolf. He also made a rendering of the Categories of Aristotle. Last Years, p. 202. Ibid, 81, 173, 187, 202, 288.

Geschichte Georgiens Altunkal'a Hakimesi Rodovid Javaxisvili [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] Dedesmit Dede Semid

The new atabag, Qvarqvare IV, was a puppet of his imperious mother, Dedisimedi, who had her main rival, the nobleman Varaz Shalikashvili, murdered. An uprising and an attempt on Qvarqvare IV followed. All through 1576-7 civil war raged through eastern Samtskhe, destroying towns such as Tmogvi. Qvarqvare appealed to the shah, but Tahmasp died in 1576... Akhalkalaki was occupied; Qvarqavare IV and his mother Dedisimedi surrendered. Rayfield 175–176

Achara and, since with the new turn Waraza's son, Kokola, had got in before them in the Turkish favour, the young Atabegi Qwarqware V and his brother Manuchar appealed despairingly to Tahmasp. In 1576 events moved to a crisis of confusion. In Samtzkhe Kokola Shalikashvili and the young Jaqelis were loosing a desperate civil carnage. Every little baron in the upland country took a hand for one side or the other, and the peasants paid in a most dreadful spoliation. In that war the last strength of the marchland principality — for long so turbulent and free — was altogether wasted. In Kazvin when Tahmasp died, the Shalikashvili dowager, working with Yese, Alexander's brother,1 had made Shah a weakly, high-strung boy, Haydar. But the Georgian adventurers in Kazvin, nominal Muslims whom the easy Shi'ah men about the court regarded with no animosity, were glowered upon by the strong Sunni faction, who on the death of Shah Tahmasp began to raise their heads...

Kutaisi

edit

Cytaea

CUTATISIUM (Κουτατίσιον, Procop. B. G. 4.13, 14), a small town in Colchis, on the river Phasis, now Kchitais or Kutais. It was identified with the mythical Cytae or Cytaea, said to have been the birthplace of Medea (Steph. B. sub voce Pin. 4.12. s. 26), whence the adjectives Cytaeaeus and Cytaeus, used in reference to Medea and Colchis (Propert. 1.24; V. Fl. 6.693). Scylax, on the other hand, states that Mala, on the same river, was entitled to that honour.[12]
