Marwan ibn Muhammad's invasion of Georgia : ウィキペディア英語版 | Marwan ibn Muhammad's invasion of Georgia
Marwan ibn Muhammad's invasion of Georgia ((グルジア語:მურვან ყრუს შემოსევა საქართველოში)) took place from 735 to 737. It was initiated by the Umayyad Caliphate. The goals of the campaign are disputed among historians. The Georgian historiography insists its main purpose was to finally break the stiff Georgian resistance against Arab rule,〔Georgian Soviet Encyclopedia, Vol. 7, pg. 199, Tb., 1984〕 however, the western historians such as Cyril Toumanoff,〔Toumanoff, Cyril, "Iberia between Chosroid and Bagratid Rule", in ''Studies in Christian Caucasian History'', Georgetown, 1963, p. 405. Accessible online at ()〕 and Ronald Suny,〔Suny, Ronald Grigor (1994), ''The Making of the Georgian Nation: 2nd edition'', p. 28. Indiana University Press, ISBN 0253209153〕 view it as a general campaign directed at both the Byzantine Empire, who exerted dominion over Western Georgia, and the Khazars, whose repeated raids affected not only Iberia (Eastern Georgia) and the whole Caucasus, but had in 730 reached Arab lands all the way to Mosul. ==The invasion== The invasion was led by Marwan ibn Muhammad, who later became the last Umayyad caliph Marwan II. He first campaigned in Kartli, after which he led his armies to the west and besieged the fortress of Anakopia, where Archil of Kakheti and his brother Mihr, who were assisted by Leon I of Abkhazia, were stationed. The Arabs failed to take the fortress and were forced to retreat. Fearing an onslaught, large numbers of Georgians fled to the mountainous regions. Marwan later invaded Samtskhe, encamped in Odzrkhe and led his forces against the princes of Argveti, Constantine and David, from whom, upon their capture, he demanded unconditional conversion to Islam, which both refused. He tortured and then killed them for their refusal. After that, Marwan took Tshkumi (modern Sukhumi) and Tsikhegoji and again turned to Anakopia. The Georgians fought fiercely and the Arabs were powerless to take the fortress, especially after heavy rains and floods began. The Arabs retreated with heavy losses.
