Pshavi is a small historic-geographic area in Georgia, included in today’s Mtskheta-Mtianeti region and laying chiefly on the southern foothills of the Greater Caucasus mountains along Aragvi River and the lower Iori River. The Pshavs, who are locally called the Pshaveli, speak a Georgian dialect and are Georgian Orthodox. Their history, traditions and customs are similar to those of other eastern Georgian mountaineers, particularly the Khevsurs.

  • Pshavi is a small historic-geographic area in Georgia, included in today’s Mtskheta-Mtianeti region and laying chiefly on the southern foothills of the Greater Caucasus mountains along Aragvi River and the lower Iori River. The Pshavs, who are locally called the Pshaveli, speak a Georgian dialect and are Georgian Orthodox. Their history, traditions and customs are similar to those of other eastern Georgian mountaineers, particularly the Khevsurs. The popular Georgian poet Luka Razikashvili (1861-1915), best known by his pen name Vazha-Pshavela (i.e. , "a lad from Pshavi"), was born in this province, in the picturesque village of Chargali.
  • Pshavi è una piccola area storico-geografica situata nella Georgia, inclusa nell'attuale regione di Mtskheta-Mtianeti, principalmente posta sul versante meridionale della catena montuosa del Caucaso Maggiore lungo il fiume Aragvi e il basso corso dello Iori. Gli pshavi, che erano localmente chiamati pshaveli, parlano un dialetto georgiano e sono ortodossi georgiani. La loro storia, tradizioni e costumi sono simili a quelli di altri montanari georgiani orientali, particolarmente i khevsuri. Il popolare poeta georgiano Luka Razikashvili (1861-1915), meglio noto con lo pseudonimo Vazha-Pshavela (vale a dire, "ragazzo di Pshavi"), nacque in questa provincia, nel pittoresco villaggio di Chargali.
