Summary
Georgian narrative and documentary materials represent a significant source for the analysis of the relations between Mongolians and Georgians and for a thorough study of the history of the Mongols. This chapter mainly considers the voluminous work called The Centennial Chronicle compiled by an anonymous fourteenth-century author known as the Chronicler. It is important not only for the history of Georgia and Mongolia, but also for the history of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Russia, Iran, Central Asia, and Asia Minor, conveying the history of their development from the 1220s to the 1320s. The material provided in The Centennial Chronicle is a reliable source for studying the socioeconomic history of the Near and Middle East in the period of Mongol domination. The chapter also discusses other Georgian narrative and documentary materials providing, information on some issues concerning the relations between the Mongolians and Georgians (taxes and other obligations).
