Abstract
The Paper presents the ethnographic material based on Georgian
traditions, in particular the peculiarities of Tbilisi marriage and mediation
institute. The presented research clearly confirms the very important
elements of marriage in Georgian 19th century life in Tbilisi. The
peculiarities of this tradition distinguished by their specialness and individualism.
However, it should be noted that in addition to Eastern similarities,
European similarities were revealed even if we consider the
historical-ethnographic material at the background of the study of these
traditions. Historian Davit Bakradze describes the abovesaid very
well in his work. The fact that the role of mediator was revealed only in
Tbilisi marriages is well reflected in our ethnographic material, this institution
did not operate in any other region of Georgia. It was only in
Tbilisi and at the same time in most cases of marriage. We should also
say here that love marriage was also justified, which was accepted and
perfected by the Georgian Church. The mediator and the matchmaker had different roles, the mediator
was a decent person who was not interested in taking money and
was close to reality, unlike the matchmaker, and the matchmaker did
not consider any shortcomings in exchange for money. In this case, a
passive load assigned to the couples to be married, due to which the
existing marriage ended with an undesirable result. As for the fact that
the bath played a very big role in the process of checking a woman, I.
Grishashvili confirms it well in his works, And finally, it should be said
that in Georgian existence and Tbilisi marriage every era introduced its
own changes, which were determined by the customs, spiritual needs
and economic level of the population.
