Published in: “ჯავახეთი. ისტორიულ-ხუროთმოძღვრული გზამკვლევი”, էջ 100-101: Note: The believers of the neighbourhood are in the habit of lighting candles on this stele, as a result of which, the reliefs and inscription carved on it are almost buried under a thick layer of soot. For this reason, we are obliged to publish the latter from an unsuccessfully-made traced copy found in “ჯავახეთი. ისტორიულ-ხუროთმოძღვრული გზამკვლევი.” The inscription dates from the period of the reign of King Giorgi Lasha IV (1213 to 1222).
