Claims

  • B-101 D tradition supports

    The monk of ერკოტა who fled Zarzma during a "Tatar" invasion, married, farmed, served the liturgy secretly დარბაზებში, and was written down as ბერიძე; lineage called ზარზგიენთ → ზანდარიენთ

    Folklore, recorded in ქართული დიალექტოლოგია I (1961), p. 362. A genuine field record with a named village and living lineage names — say that too; it earns respect without granting it historicity. The 1961 record misplaces the village in "Akhaltsikhe district"; it is Aspindza.
