USHGULI, GEORGIA: EUROPE'S HIGHEST SETTLEMENT (TRAVEL GEORGIA)
11/9/19 - Mestia-Ushguli, Svaneti, Georgia - We took the trip to Ushguli, and were amazed by the rustic nature of Europe’s highest settlement! Unfortunately we couldn’t do the four day Mestia to Ushguli hike but we hope to be back one day to do it! When we arrived we took some time out in our guesthouse and I got some drone shots of Ushguli. We then walked through the upper villages to the La Maria Church where legend has it a couple hundred of years ago the inhabitants murdered a lord who wanted to rule over them. Mount Shkhara loomed behind us and we saw a rainbow before heading back to our guesthouse for the evening!

La Chiesa di Lamaria è dedicata a Santa Maria. Si trova sull'alta collina ed è circondato dalla recinzione fatta di rocce. E 'stato costruito nel 10 ° secolo. Una volta entrato in questa recinzione, ti sembrerà che il tempo si sia fermato perché tutto è rimasto invariato per secoli. All'interno della chiesa, noterete molti affreschi che sono quasi sbiaditi dal tempo. Tuttavia, noterete ancora un affresco molto interessante di Gesù, nel centro della chiesa. Di solito, i raggi del sole non raggiungono la chiesa, ed è illuminato con le candele. Questo fatto rende la chiesa Lamaria ancora più intoccabile e misteriosa. Ogni anno, il 28 agosto, molte persone da tutta la Georgia si riuniscono qui per celebrare il giorno di Santa Maria. Fonte
Alla periferia di Ushguli, su una collina solitaria, sorge l'antica chiesa di Lamaria (chiesa dell'Assunzione della Madre di Dio) con funzioni regolari. Gli abitanti locali ritengono che fu sotto questa chiesa che fu sepolta la regina Tamara, figura centrale nella storia di Svans. La considerano una benefattrice cristiana che costruisce tutti i loro templi e fa generosi doni alle chiese. Fonte
Lamaria è una dea della mitologia georgiana, in particolare del sottogruppo Svan etnico. Come molte altre divinità del pantheon Svan, il suo nome deriva da una figura cristiana; nel suo caso, Maria, madre di Gesù. Lamaria è la dea del focolare, protettrice del bestiame e protettrice delle donne, in particolare durante il parto. Ha anche assicurato la fertilità dei campi di grano di un villaggio. Era anche conosciuta come protettrice dell'apicoltura, anche se quella funzione fu successivamente assegnata all'interpretazione Svan di San Giorgio.
Lamaria è generalmente classificata oggi come una dea delle funzioni e degli spazi femminili. Era venerata dalle donne o nelle loro case in assenza di uomini (l'interno degli interni), o in piccoli santuari in spazi disabitati fuori dai confini di un villaggio (l'esterno dell'esterno). Ciò era in contrasto con i rituali religiosi eseguiti dagli uomini per le funzioni maschili, che venivano eseguiti a rituali pubblici all'interno della casa, o all'interno di chiese remote situate in alto sulle montagne (l'esterno degli interni e l'interno). dell'esterno , rispettivamente). Le offerte fatte a Lamaria comprendevano vestiti, gioielli e perline. A volte, i focolari portatili venivano usati per i rituali all'aperto che coinvolgono Lamaria.
Lamaria era anche associata a volte, persino equivalente a Barbol, un'altra dea delle funzioni femminili e domestiche. Alcuni studiosi hanno suggerito che entrambi provengono dalla stessa divinità pre-cristiana. Fonte Wikipedia... Ulteriori informazioni

Georgia, Svaneti by georgianholidays.com
The mountainous region of Svaneti in the northwestern part of Georgia is one of the most remote and inaccessible regions of the country. Svaneti retains a pristine medieval quality. This sense of time warp, combined with the grandeur of the natural setting, makes a trip to Svaneti well worth the effort no matter how difficult it may be to get there.
The Svans are indigenous Georgians and speak their own language mostly spoken at home and socially. The harsh climate and mountainous landscape of the region are the principal factors behind the Svanetian character. They are proud, laconic people who find the virtue in a certain austerity and stoicism. Hunters and alpinists are the most respected members of the community. Svans in no way remiss in the practice of traditional Georgian hospitality.
Ushguli is the highest permanently inhabited village in Europe, located in Svaneti, at the feet of Shkhara, one of the highest Caucasian summits. About 70 families, approximately 250 people live in the village, which dates back more than 2000 years. For 6 winter months, snow covers the whole place and often the road to Mestia is closed. However, a small school is always open and life goes on.
Over 20 medieval typical Svanetian protective towers are found throughout the Ushguli with goats, pigs and cows happily mingling with the local population on the narrow cobbled lanes. There is an Ethnographic Museum in a tower located in the center of the settlement containing the first-rate examples of medieval repousse work, icons, and processional crosses from churches in this region and other parts of Georgia. A short walk above the village leads to a small hilltop where the Lamaria Chapel is located, dating back to the 12th century. The Chapel is full of magnificent old frescoes. From there a broad valley leads to the foot of Shkhara through flower strewn alpine meadows.
The superb location of Ushguli and the unique lifestyle of the people in the village turn the place into a popular destination to visit. The road from Mestia to Ushguli is rough and requires a 4WD vehicle with a journey time of about 2 to 3 hours. The severe location isolates Ushguli from the rest of modernized Georgia, and as a result, many Svanetian religious and cultural traditions have remained virtually intact. However, in recent years economic pressures have been forcing more and more young Svans into cities and now the future longevity of one of Georgias oldest tribes is fading.
