Tbilisi, December 1999 Below, the huge Kartlis Deda (Mother Georgia) statue. One version is that she's saying to her guest, "Drink this wine or I'll cut your throat."
Above, a scene from the memorial to the writer Shota Rustaveli on Rustaveli Avenue.
I've lived in Tbilisi 25 years and I didn't know what kartlis deda saying. "Drink this wine or I'll cut your throat." - It's beautiful :)
