| dc.description.abstract | In the Greco-Roman pantheon of deities, Helios, Sol, and Apollo are connected with the cult of the sun, whose introduction in Iberia and Colchis begins in the Early Antiquity. In the Late Antiquity, the gods related to the sun cult that entered the Roman Empire from the Hellenistic period were added to the mentioned deities on the territory of Georgia too. They were as follows: Aryan Mithras, Syrian Baal, Elagabalus, Asia Minor Men, Phrygian Jupiter Dolichenus, Thracian-Phrygian Sabazios, etc. Artifacts related to solar deities have been attested both on the territory of eastern and western Georgia. Although not in large numbers but some amount of artifacts are discovered, among which was a golden medallion (pendant) with the image of Helios found in the Gonio hoard (2nd-3rd centuries AD) in 1974 during the construction of a road near Apsaros fortress, on a nearby mountain, along with other excellent examples of goldsmithing. The images of Helios (Sol) are mainly recorded on the glyptic monuments found on the territory of Iberia. One of them was found in Mtskheta, on the territory of the Samtavro necropolis in 1939 in the southern section of the territory of the Samtavro, in a damaged Stone box grave A. It is an oval-shaped bulging carnelian intaglio inserted in a silver ring dated back to the 3rd c. Another one is an intaglio of topaz, that adorns a gold medallion and is found in Usakhelo Village. The images of the god Apollo were found on a bronze ring (2nd century AD) on a flat intaglio of white transparent glass in tomb No. 51 excavated in 1958 at Urbnisi necropolis. The introduction of deities related to the cult of the sun into our culture should be a result of a political union between Iberia-Colchis and the ancient world. To study the issue, our attention was drawn to 11 gems with the image of an equestrian found on the territory of Georgia. Among which 4 were found in Mtskheta, 5 in Urbnisi, 1 in Kutaisi, and 1 in Zhinvali. Also, we paid attention to two samples of such Gems from the Berlin and Bonn museums with a provenance from Georgia. As a result of the study of the artifacts, it became clear that from the 1st century onwards, the cult of the horseman – the image of a horseman on a horse – began to spread, which over time undergoes syncretization process with astral cults (Sun – the rider’s headwear with the rays) and a syncretic deity was formed on local land. | |
