გაუმარჯოს გია. ამ ლეგიონებს ერთმანეთთან კავშირი არა აქვთ. სულ სხვდასახვა დროს და ვითარებაში ჩამოყალიბდნენ.

ქაქუცა სადაც მსახურობდა, ეს იყო რუსული არმიის ქართველ ცხენოსანთა ლეგიონი, რომელიც ირანში და სირიაში გაიგზავნა ბრიტანეთის ჯარების დასახმარებლად და პირველი მსოფლიო ომის ბოლო წლებში სამშობლოში დაბრუნდა. "ქართული ლეგიონში", რომელიც გერმანელებმა 1914 წელს შექმნეს, ძირითადად გერმანიაში მყოფი ქართველი სტუდენტები და ემიგრანტები იყვნენ, სულ 1400 კაცი. ესენი 1918 წელს გერმანელებთან ერთად საქართველოში შემოვდნენ და შეურთდნენ დამოუკიდებელი საქართველოს ეროვნულ არმიას.

მეორედ გერმანული არმიის "ქართული ლეგიონი" უკვე მეორე მსოფლიო ომის დროს შეიქმნა და 1944 წლის ბოლომდე არსებობდა. ქართველებს მაინცდამაინც არ მოსწონდათ რომ გერმანელები მათ ინგლისელებთან და ფრანგებთან საომრად გზავნიდნენ და მოითხოვდნენ კავკასიაში გაგზავნას. ამიტომ ძირითადი ქართული ნაწილები გერმანელებმა დაშალეს და სხვადასხვა მხარეს გაფანტეს. მათ შორის იყო 813-ე ბატალიონი, რომელმაც ტექსელზე ცნობილი აჯანყება მოაწყო.

აი ეს არის მოკლედ რისი თქმაც მინდოდა. ეს ლეგიონები სხვადასხვა სამხედრო ნაწილები იყო და სხვადასხვა შინაარსის. ბედნიერად, --Kober 05:41, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

answers

1. when exactly the georgian legion of 1914 stop being unit?

In 1917, by the decree/orders of President Zhordania the Georgian Legion was disbanded and its members displaced in various newly created army of GDR. The reason for this dismissal was due to the pressure from the victorious Allies from whom Zhordania expected the recognition of his country. The German-sponsored legion was a negative stain on the British-French relations with newly established independent Georgia.

2. what is the connection between Kress von Kressenstein and the georgian ligion?

Count Von Kressenstein was commissioned by Marshal Ludendorf in 1914 to create an expeditionary German force to Georgia which would equip and train the newly created Georgian Legion. Kressenstein appointed Horst Schliephack as the commanding general but later he was replaced by the talented Count Ferdinand Wolfgang von der Schulenburg as the general of the Georgian Legion.

3. do the georgian legion exsits this time? do the legion join the army of the new country? whan?

Georgian Legion was created by the end of 1915 and was fully functional as a military force by mid 1915. The legion engaged in various battles for Georgia during the Turkish aggression on Batumi (1916-17). Ldingley 19:17, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Gia. I don’t think that kuropalates can be identified with prince-elector. In my opinion, these two offices were essentially different. It is really difficult to find an English equivalent for kuropalates, but it can literally be translated as "a guardian of the palace." As for Rizhinashvili, here’s what I found in kartuli sabchota encyclopedia:

Abram (Itska) Rizhinashvili (April 12, 1886 – July 17, 1906) was a Georgian Jew from Kutaisi. He studied at the Kutaisi Real Gymnasium and became involved in the social-democratic movement. While studying at the Leipzig University, he joined a local Bolshevik group in 1904. Back to Georgia in 1905, he helped propagate Marxist ideas among the army soldiers stationed in Imereti and Samegrelo. He was assassinated by a Tsarist police agent in Kutaisi (he was indeed 20 years old). Georgian Soviet Encyclopedia, volume 8, p. 395.

Btw, he appears to be a hero of the play by the famous Georgian-Jewish writer Gerzel Baazov who was shot under Stalin in 1937. Thanks for asking me this question, because I have never heard of him before. :) Kober^Talk 16:55, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sasireti

Hi Geagea, how are you? The Battle of Sasireti took place before Liparit went to help the Byzantines against the Seljuqs and was captured in the battle in 1048. So, the correct date seems to be 1042. Thanks for spotting this inconsistency. As for the Varangians, they were just mercenaries and helped those who paid more. :) At Sasireti, they were allied with Bagrat, but in most of other conflict, they formed a special units within the Byzantine army. I'm not completely sure about Svindax; will check it. Best regards, Kober^Talk 05:01, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wait... I just checked the date of Sasireti and one source says it occurred in 1046. It is really confusing. Let's leave 1042 for the time being, OK? --Kober^Talk 05:04, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Samtskhe

Hi Geagea. Samtskhe Province, Ottoman Empire needs to be completely rewritten. I will take care of it as soon as I find enough time. The article in Georgian wikipedia will, of course, be helpful. Thanks for the link. As for the Kutaisi gubernia, the Georgian article is more accurate.

Hi Geagea. Thanks for your accuracy. I've corrected the date of the 1918 changes in the Georgian cabinet. It occurred on July 24 1918. As for Nichephorus Phocas, the name itself is correct, but the link was wrong. This is another Phocas (son of Bardas Phocas), not Nikephoros II. Well, the "Byzantine-Georgian conflicts" also sounds good. All the best, --Kober^Talk 05:07, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Gea.

1. Didgori - corrected (40 km from Tbilisi)

2. Yes, Basian, Phasiane and Pasinler refer to the same region. As for its location within Meskheti, it is true but only when the medieval term Meskheti is used in a larger sense covering both Samtskhe-Javakheti and Tao-Klarjeti. The article on Basian is much needed and I'm going to create it somehow soon.

3. The date when Georgians took Kars: corrected (1206/1207)

4. I agree that the category:Former provinces of Georgia is rather confusing. Its name was Historical provinces of Georgia, but somebody moved it to "Former Provinces". Kabardino-Balkaria can be classified as a former province of Georgia, but it is obviously not a "historical province" in a commonly accepted notion of this term. So, I'm not sure about this one.

Hope that helps. Best, --Kober^Talk 07:26, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Gea. Yes, you are correct: since the loss of Tao-Klarjeti, the term Meskheti narrowed to denote only the small region which is shown on the map. As for the united kongdom of Georgia, it is indeed a great idea to have this article and I'd also like to work on it for English Wikipedia. The Kura Plain is actually a large region which lays along the Mtkvari, but I do not remember where exactly these battles took place. I will try to find it out and will let you know. And you are right about Cumans. They are the Kipchaks. As for the war in Shirvan, sources variably put either 1123 or 1124. Let's write 1123/1124, OK? :) Cheers, --Kober^Talk 07:22, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Zagrum

Gaumarjos Gea. Is the town of Zagrum (Zagrom or Zagram; where the Georgian Jews lived in the 17th century before being relocated to Iran) the same as ძაგემი or ძეგამი (aslo known as ბაზარი) in Kakheti? Could you please check it in the Hebrew sources? That Zagemi/Zegami/Bazari was a lively commercial town and it is quite possible that the kings of Kakheti settled a Jewish community there to help the local economy to develop. Thanks, --Kober^Talk 13:14, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Persian sources locate it in Hereti. In what is today (abusively) is called republic of Azerbaijan, though I should say that the name Hereti does not appear in Alam-Ara. I remeber that I read in one Persian source that Zegem was the centre or capital of Eastern Georgia., but that also included areas in the contemporary rep.

Dear Gia,

Here I wanted to appriciate your contribution to wikipedia, and your help to settle a dispute on Iranian Georgian page with Babakexorramdin. In Nov. 2007 he questioned that there had been Gerogian Jews who migrated to coast of Caspian sea in Safavid Persia. Dispite several sources I presented he insisted that such thing is impossible until you confirmed Dr. Levy's book and presnted new sources also. I am very intrested in History of Jews in Georgia and specifically this particular community from Zagrum. Would you advise me about possible sources that I can read furthur about this community before their migration out of Georgia? (Ben (talk) 10:54, 9 February 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Dear Gia, In addition to Dr. Levy's book I have encountered several other works about the migration of the Jewish community of Zagem that mentions them as Gerogian Jews. One of them is Matthee, Rudolph P. (1999), The Politics of Trade in Safavid Iran: Silk for Silver, 1600-1730. Although, they most probably came from a city which today is located in northwest of Azerbijan with a similar name "Dzegam". This town matchs the map in following link which is a research by Maeda Hirotake by the name "The Forced Migrations and Reorganisation ofthe Regional Order in the Caucasus by Safavid Iran Preconditions and Developments Described by Fazli Khuzani". http://src-h.slav.hokudai.ac.jp/coe21/publish/no10_ses/09_maeda.pdf This research is based on primary sources and also contains a map and details about the forced migration of Jews of Zagem to Mazandaran(North of todays Iran). I'd like to see your Hebrew source about Jews of Zagem. Thank You. --Ben (talk) 21:41, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Geagea, I cannot stop being amazed by your ability and eagerness to find such invisible inconsistencies and correct them.  :) Thank you so much for this great job. Indeed, Vakhtang VI’s printing house was established in 1709. 1712 is the year when the first book was printed there. Cheers, --Kober^Talk 06:57, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Dasturlamali (დასტურლამალი) was a name given by Vakhtang to his “constitution” regulating the royal court and state organization. It is a word of Persian origin and means a “set of laws”, if I correctly remember.
• According to some sources on the Internet, Hussayn Quli Khan was a Muslim name of Vakhtang VI, but I could not verify it in the printed Georgian texts. I will try to learn more about that.
• As for the size of Vakhtang’s Georgian-Armenian army, some sources put it at 40,000 while others at 50,000 or even 60,000. I think it will be OK to write just 40,000-50,000. What do you think about it?
• The palace of Vakhtang in Moscow did not survive and I don’t really know if a contemporary picture of it exists.
• Regarding Sub-Gevork, I think there is some confusion on Georgian wikipedia. The Armenian church in Isani (which has the 9 April memorial) is called Norashen. Sub-Gevork is located in Meidani Square, near the old bathes. I’ve got a book on old Tbilisian placenames and will look into it.

Hello Geagea. Sorry for a late reply.

• Lashkari - The author of that book is apparently referring to a medieval Georgian army and the principle of its recruitment. Yes, lashkari is a word of Persian origin. See ka:ლაშქარი.
• George VII of Georgia - 1369 is the year of George VII's appointment as Bagrat's co-ruler, not the year of Bagrat's release. I rewrote that sentence to clarify the matter.
• Timur's invasions of Georgia - Tortumi was a medieval fortres in Tao-Klarjeti. It is the modern-day town of Tortum, Turkey. Dzami (ka:ძამის ციხე) was a fortress in Shida Kartli.

Hope this helps. :) Best regards, --Kober^Talk 15:20, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are welcome, Geagea. Ibrahim I of Shirvan was allied with Timur and Timur ordered him to estimate the revenues and expenses of Georgia in order to calculate the amount of tribute which was to be paid by the population of Georgia to Timur. --Kober^Talk 16:07, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I noticed that you speak Georgian. I've been looking at the website of the Provisional Administrative Entity of South Ossetia, and although they have an English version, most of the information is in Georgian. If there any chance you could let me know what the basic gist of is of the following articles (no need for a full translation):

• სამხრეთ ოსეთის ადმინისტრაციის განცხადება
• კოკოითის „სამშვიდობო ინიციატივა“

Thank you, my dear friend. Hope you are okay as well. Yes, Georgia has seen many misfortunes. It even survived eight invasions by Timur which strikingly parallels the current Russian onslaught on Georgia: ethnic cleansing, scorched earth tactics, ecocide... But Georgians are not going to surrender.--Kober^Talk 15:29, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

translation problems

Could you please clarify what the following passages from he:יהדות_סוחומי mean:

1. "התארגנה הקהילה היהודית במקום ונרשמה כחוק"

What happened with the community? Was it simply registered or recognised or something else?

2. "בית כנסת שנבנה בעשור הראשון של המאה ה-20 "

Was this synagogue the first in 20th century Russia, USSR, Georgia, Abkhazia or Sukhumi?

3. "המשיכה הקהילה לפעול במבנה"

What was done in the building at Gogol street? Best regards, Alæxis_¿question? 07:32, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1. The registeretion means recognition by the authorities.

2. No. it means 1st decade of the century.

3. The community keep acting from this building without the authority permission.

Geagea (talk) 02:26, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot. I've got another question now - do the numbers of Jews in Sukhumi come from Altshuler's book or from somewhere else? Alæxis_¿question? 13:39, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I collect the numbers from few sources. And I have one note about the new History of the Jews in Abkhazia article. The jews in Abkhazia, Ashkenazi and local jews, are Georgian Jews. For example: Boris Gaponov (he:דב גפונוב), the transelator of The Knight in the Panther's Skin to hebrew was ashkenazi jew and he was Georgian jew. Geagea (talk) 23:34, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think there's something of a terminology problem. Georgian Jews is a distinct Jewish community, like Ashkenazi or Sefardi Jews. This is not the same as Jews living in Georgia (who also can be called "Georgian Jews" in some cases). I've used this term in the first sense in the article, like it's done in this article. Alæxis_¿question? 11:08, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The research about Georgian Jews refers to ashkenazi and Sefardi jews in Georgia. You can see this map two comminities in Sukumi and Gagra were exist until the imigration of jew to Israel. and old community in Ochamchira. The division of jews in the world is not by political division. It is cultural division that based by nass research. According to the jews point of view the jews in Abkhazia, at least until 1992-1993, are Georgian Jews. The ashkenazi jews also were Georgian Jews. I understand the political situation. maybe it better for you to make article about Sukhumi Jews. Geagea (talk) 01:32, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry but I don't quite understand you. Here's how I understand the situation - the term 'Georgian Jews' may be used in 2 meanings. The first is a sub-ethnic group of Jews historically from Georgia. Of course they do not necessarily live in Georgia. Also, not all Jews living in Georgia are 'Georgian Jews' in this sense. The second meaning is all the Jews who live in Georgia. Both meanings are valid and could be used depending on context.

Now, the Wikipedia article about Georgian Jews (that I haven't edited at all) is about 'Georgian Jews' in the first sense. So, for the sake of consistency I've used the term 'Georgian Jews' in this sense also in the article about Jews in Abkhazia. There's a wikilink there and so it's clear for a reader what do I mean by this term. In other words, it's not implied in the article that Jews living in Abkhazia have or haven't been 'Georgian Jews' in the second sense.

Why do you think that the article about Sukhumi community would be better? There's not that much info in this article so that article would be even briefer.

Thanks for the map, it's very interesting. Alæxis_¿question? 11:13, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks, dear Gea. Wish all the best to you too. I'm closely watching the current developments in Israel. Hope you feel safe.--Kober^Talk 12:48, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Geagea. How are you? I'm really sorry for such a late reply. I'll do a quick research in Borjomi's history as soon as possible. Regarding the Gaza fighting, I do think that Hamas and peace in the region are incompatible with each other. Hope everything will end soon. All the best, --Kober^Talk 18:59, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Geagea. How are you? At last I managed to rewrite Borjomi. I will expand it as time permits. I fixed most inaccuracies you have mentioned.

1. Borjomi was never a part of the Ottoman Empire although Ottomans frequently raided it. In the 1829 treaty, they finally gave up all claims to the area.

2. Grand Duke Michael Nikolaevich built a mansion in Borjomi itself. The Likani palace was constructed by his son, Nicholas Mikhailovich.

3. Meskheti is a larger term. It includes not only Samtskhe, Javakheti and Tori, but also Tao-Klarjeti and part of Adjara. However, Meskheti and Samtskhe are sometimes used as synonyms. The term "Tori" has not been used since the 15th century. It was sometimes known as Saavalishvilo after the Avalishvili family, but was considered as part of Kartli. The historical geography of these areas are really confusing because the terms were frequently used interchangeably and the provincial borders commonly fluctuated due to constant infighting and foreign invasions.

Best regards, --Kober^Talk 12:38, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Kober. and one more thing about Borjomi. it is mentioned that according to Treaty of Adrianople (1829) the sovereign about Borjomi turned from the Turks to the Russians and then the city get the ourday name Borjomi. it mentioned in the German wiki, and this what it means if I understand it correctly. Geagea (talk) 09:34, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome, Gea. I don't think that this version is accurate. The name Borjomi first appears in a 1819 letter by Prince Avalishvili to the Russian viceroy. The Treaty of Adrianople was a confirmation of the earlier Russian acquisitions in the region. --Kober^Talk 04:34, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Geagea. Of course, Abastumani is another place. As far as I know, the grand duke lived in Borjomi and frequently visited Abastumani where he eventually died. --Kober^Talk 20:58, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Geagea. Sorry for a late reply. Rtveli is not a unique phenomenon in Kakheti. It's also celebrated in other provinces of Georgia. But the Kakhetian rtveli is still more colorful and traditional. Regarding Sulayman Pasha al-Adil, I found this. He appears to be of Georgian, like many of the Mamluk rulers in the Middle East.

Ossetians in Trialeti with official borders??? I clearly stated in map legend that it was only a territory claimed by South Ossetia and I do not see that map legend claim that these are official borders. How would you present one territory in a map without borders? PANONIAN 23:04, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I know what which territory was, but I asked you how you propose that I show border of Trialetian Ossetia in the map? Should I use different colours or what? PANONIAN 23:38, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

To to push my political agenda!??? And what that agenda might be? I live in Serbia and I really have no any political agenda related to Caucasus, so please try to discuss about subjects of the maps or articles, not about other users. Anyway, I deleted border of Trialetian Ossetia in new map version. Do you have any other objection to this map? PANONIAN 23:56, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nili Portugali moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Nili Portugali, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. power~enwiki (π, ν) 02:18, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

David Ben-Gurion (16 October 1886 – 1 December 1973) was the primary national founder of the State of Israel and the first prime minister of the country. Born David Grün, he adopted the surname Ben-Gurion in 1909, and later rose to become the preeminent leader of the Jewish community in British-ruled Mandatory Palestine from 1935 until the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, which he led until 1963 with a short break between 1954 and 1955. This photograph of Ben-Gurion was taken in 1960 and is part of Israel's National Photo Collection. Photograph credit: Fritz Cohen Recently featured: Eastern bristlebird Mudpot Komodo dragon

A barnstar for you!

	The Original Barnstar
	Just wanted to say thanks for uploading all the MK photos - great work! Number 57 23:51, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Number 57, thanks --geagea^Talk 23:21, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Re File:Nahman Raz (raz nachman).jpg, I think you must have got the date of it wrong – he died seven years before the date given... Number 57 15:23, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, should the date of File:Eli Dayan (IH000303072027).jpg be 1988 rather than 1998? Number 57 16:22, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well that's the date on the database but will check it again. --geagea^Talk 17:46, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think the metadata for File:Eli Cohen (00440008).jpg is actually for Eli Cohen (politician, born 1972) not Eli Cohen (politician, born 1949) (as it refers to him being an MK from 2015 to 2023). Number 57 14:55, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Number 57, fixed it. thanks. --geagea^Talk 08:29, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies if I'm being stupid, but it still has the data for the other Eli Cohen (e.g. "Description: Eli Cohen, Knesset member (2015-03-31 - 2023-02-15)", "Date from 31 March 2015 until 15 February 2023"). Number 57 10:19, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you are correct. fixed it. thanks. --geagea^Talk 10:28, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
