On One Type of Ancient Settlements of the Bronze-Early Iron Ages at the Kolkheti Lawland

On the territory of the Kolkheti lowland artificial hills are used for settlements in the Bronze-Early Iron Ages (ca. 24^th/23^rd-8^th/7^th centuries B.C.). Such hills are well-spread on both coastal line and in the hinterland. The concentration of the settlements are marked in the basins of Rioni-Pichori, Abasha-Noghela, Enguri-Kodori, Tsivi-Khobi, Choloki-Ochkhamuri, and Qorantastsqali-Munchia.
