Abstract

The article concerns about issues of the localization of the first spread of the Georgian languages. We discuss the interrelation of the Georgian languages with the Indo-European, Ibero-Caucasian and Nostratic languages. The article provides conclusion that in the epoch of Neolithus and Eneolithus the area of dissemination of the Georgian languages might had been the Northern Mesopotamia and the East of Asia Minor. During the Early Bronze age they (Georgian speaking population) shifted to the direction of the Northern Caucasus, towards the area of Maykop Culture. The hypothesis which is stated in our article is generalization on the basis of the most important linguistics and archaeological issues.
