The Land of Golden Fleece.

The Land of Golden Fleece.


According to the Greek mythology about Argonauts Colchis Kingdom had represented a developed advanced country by its elevated culture and economy from times immemorial. The ancient Greek historical sources verify the same regarding the ancient Christian Kingdoms of Colchis and Hereti while their validity is evidenced by the architectural monuments and displays that have been preserved as remains of the ancient times towns: Vani, Phasisi (Poti), Aia (Kutaisi), Dioskuria (Sukhumi).
The two kingdoms – Colchis and Iberia – populated with the Georgian ethnicity, apparently had close relationships with the peoples and countries of the Mediterranean and Asia Minor. This set conditions for the existence of similar cultural space with certain national features and nature.

The antique culture monuments existing in the Western Georgia (Colchis) tell us about the world of mythological Argonauts and Medea.
