About this document

Leonti Mroveli and Georgian Culture by Tamari Shurgaia is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses the origins and development of the early Georgian alphabet known as Asomtavruli. It argues that Asomtavruli emerged in the early Christian period, likely in the 4th-3rd centuries AD, as the official script of the Christian Church in Georgia. The script shows influence from earlier alphabetic writing systems but also had original, distinctive features of its own. It represents an important stage in the evolution of the Georgian written language and cultural traditions.
