Eros with his glittering golden wings, swift as the whirlwinds of the tempest. He mated in the deep Abyss with dark Chaos, winged like himself, and thus hatched forth our race, which was the first to see the light.
Vani (Georgian: ვანი) is a town in Imereti region (biblical Meshech) of western Georgia, at the Sulori river (a tributary of the Rioni river), 41 km southwest from the regional capital Kutaisi. Systematic archaeological studies (N.Khoshtaria, O.Lortkiphanidze) carried out in the Vani environs since 1947 revealed the remnants of a rich city of the ancient power of Colchis. The name of this ancient settlement is still unknown but four distinct stages of uninterrupted occupation have been identified. It is represented largely by cultic buildings (temples, altars sacrificial platforms), rich burials, and the remains of a foundry for casting bronze statues. It is assumed that Vani was a templar city. ______________________________________________________________________________ The sons of Togarmah: Kartlos, Haos, Movakos, Bardos, Lekos, Heros, Kavkasos, and Egros from whom other Caucasian peoples took their origin.
