Etymology
From Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value), equivalent to ქართველი (kartveli, “Georgian”) + სა- -ო (sa- -o), and literally means “a place where Georgians dwell”. The earliest reference to the word occurs in the ninth-century text The Georgian Chronicles. Compare to Laz ოქორთურა (okortura, “Georgia”) and Mingrelian საქორთუო (sakortuo, “Georgia”).
See ქართველი (kartveli) for more.
