Which scholar provides a rule period of 284–219 BC for Pharnavaz?

  • Pavle Ingoroqva

  • Cyril Toumanoff

  • Prince Vakhushti

  • David Marshall Lang

Answer

Pavle Ingoroqva, a Georgian scholar, proposes a reign period of 284–219 BC for Pharnavaz, the founder of the Kingdom of Iberia (modern-day Georgia). This dating differs from traditional estimates, which place Pharnavaz's reign in the 3rd century BC. Ingoroqva's chronology is based on an analysis of archaeological evidence, historical texts, and linguistic data.
