Ghmerti is the old Kartvelian word for the divine and remains the modern Georgian word for the Christian God, and the medieval chronicles that describe the pre-Christian Kartlian pantheon survive only in Christian-era compilation, written by authors already using the same word for the god of the new religion. Nothing in that filtered record describes an image, statue or symbol for a distinct pre-Christian figure under this name, and no archaeological find has been identified as one either.
What would resolve this An archaeological find, a carved or cast object identifiable as a pre-Christian Kartlian sky or divinity figure, or a surviving pre-Christian textual witness independent of the later Christian chroniclers, either of which would show whether the word ever named a figure with a pictorial or sculptural tradition of its own.
