Ian Colvin began researching Georgian History in 1992. His doctorate
deals with Roman-Sasanian rivalry in the South Caucasus in the fourth to seventh centuries AD. He studied modern and classical Georgian in Oxford and Tbilisi and since 1998 has spent his summers in Georgia.
In
1999 he and Professor Lomitashvili first discussed the idea of establishing the Anglo-Georgian Archaeological expedition. After a preliminary visit in 2000, the first full season of excavation took place in 2001 with British volunteers from Cambridge University.
