Cartridge Caucasian Caucasus Georgia Georgian Holders Nation Noble Man Wool
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the noble visage of Ovaliani, a prominent figure from the Emiritin Nation in Georgia during the 1910s. The Emiritin Nation, located in the western part of the Caucasus Mountains, was known for its unique culture and traditions, which were deeply rooted in the region's rich history. Ovaliani is depicted here wearing a traditional Cherkesska jacket, a garment that was once widely worn by the mountainous peoples of the North Caucasus. Made of thick, warm wool, the jacket was designed to protect its wearer from the harsh climate of the region. The jacket features 16 gaziri cartridge holders, which were an essential component of the traditional Caucasian weaponry. The nobleman's hair is styled in a classic Caucasian fashion, with long, flowing locks that cascade down his back. His piercing gaze and stern expression convey a sense of strength and determination, reflecting the resilience and courage of the people of the Emiritin Nation. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing us with a valuable insight into the cultural traditions and heritage of the Caucasus region. It serves as a reminder of the rich and complex history that continues to shape the identities of the people of Georgia and the wider Caucasus today.
