註釋
A detailed study of Pichvnari, located to the east of the Black Sea in Georgia and one of the most important sites of ancient Colchis, the legendary land of the Golden Fleece. Greek vessels, dating from the 6th century BC onwards, and figurines and other objects illustrate the dominant influence of Greek religion and culture in this distant outpost of hellenisation. Pichvnari degenerated into swampland in the early 2nd century BC but excavation elsewhere in the region has found evidence for continuing Greek and Roman occupation until the 4th century AD. The book includes an examination of the archaeological evidence and concludes with an overview of the region's history and numerous illustrations of artefacts and archaeological remains.
