Ambassador of Georgia to Turkey Giorgi Janjghava published the photos of the newly-discovered grave of Gurji Khatun and her son.

“I am very glad that the remains are already sent to the expertise. I am sure that Georgia-Turkey common cultural heritage will generate big interest in the public,” Giorgi Janjghava wrote on Facebook.
