  • Acceptance and Rejection of Foreign Influence in the Church Architecture of Eastern Georgia
    The Churches of Mtskheta: Acceptance and Rejection of Foreign Influence in the Church Architecture of Eastern Georgia Samantha Johnson Senior Art History Thesis December 14, 2017 The small town of Mtskheta, located near Tbilisi, the capital of the Republic of Georgia, is the seat of the Georgian Orthodox Church and is the heart of Christianity in the country. This town, one of the oldest in the nation, was once the capital and has been a key player throughout Georgia’s tumultuous history, witnessing not only the nation’s conversion to Christianity, but also the devastation of foreign invasions. It also contains three churches that are national symbols and represent the two major waves of church building in the seventh and eleventh centuries. Georgia is, above all, a Christian nation and religion is central to its national identity. This paper examines the interaction between incoming foreign cultures and deeply-rooted local traditions that have shaped art and architecture in Transcaucasia.1 Nestled among the Caucasus Mountains, between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, present-day Georgia contains fewer than four million people and has its own unique alphabet and language as well as a long, complex history. In fact, historians cannot agree on how Georgia got its English exonym, because in the native tongue, kartulad, the country is called Sakartvelo, or “land of the karvelians.”2 They know that the name “Sakartvelo” first appeared in texts around 800 AD as another name for the eastern kingdom of Kartli in Transcaucasia. It then evolved to signify the unified eastern and western kingdoms in 1008.3 Most scholars agree that the name “Georgia” did not stem from the nation’s patron saint, George, as is commonly thought, but actually comes 1 This research addresses the multitude of influences that have contributed to the development of Georgia’s ecclesiastical architecture.

    MUNICIPAL WATER AND WASTEWATER SECTOR IN GEORGIA Status Report By David Melua 2015 Municipal Water and Wastewater Sector in Georgia, status Report Table of Content Current situation page 3 Institutional Setting page 6 Legal framework page 16 Key findings and conclusions page 21 Abbreviations GWP – Georgian Water and Power GEL – Georgian Lari GUWSC – Georgian United Water Supply Company USAID – US agency for international Development EIB – European Investment Bank ADB – Asian Development Bank A.R. - Autonomous Republic KfW - Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau MDF – Municipal Development Fund WED – Water Framework Directive AA – association Agreement 2 Municipal Water and Wastewater Sector in Georgia, status Report 1. Current Situation About 95% of the urban and 35% of the rural population is supplied by centralised water service. This indicates high network coverage by international standards. The actual performance of this system is a problem, however. Poor quality of the distribution network results in a water loss rate of 10-51%, and 40% water loss in Tbilisi. All urban households suffer interrupted supply, receiving water much less than 24 hours a day, in some cities as little as 8-10 hours a day. In rural areas the supply system often does not function at all. This affects mainly people living on higher floors of buildings, because of low pressure in the sys- tem. The major reason for that is the shortage of electricity supply due to a lack of payment and also physical shortages. The majority of the connected urban households can have potentially good water quality, as the main source is groundwater. Groundwater sources provide about 90% of the water supply apart from Tbilisi.
