FaRiG helps support AGEN’s work at the village of Nokalakevi in Mingrelia, western Georgia.

The Anglo-Georgian Expedition to Nokalakevi (AGEN) was set up in 2001 by the S. Janashia State History Museum of Georgia and a team of British archaeologists organised from Cambridge University to undertake archaeological excavations at the ancient fortress site at Nokalakevi. It organises a summer excavation at the site and supports Georgian recording and conservation of other monuments in Mingrelia and archaeological finds from all over West Georgia.
