Despite the adoption of Islam the population has always consideredthe spots of destroyed churches as their own property and their attitude wasexpressed with great respect and worship. There also the facts of donation,especially within the period of peril for the population. The followingChristian toponyms can also testify a fact: vicious (sodomuri), spots whereships were bound up (gemis nambavebi), ark (kidobani), etc. For example:the toponym “Nakartli” (that means that the land belonged to Kartli before)expresses not only the process of “Kartlization”, but also it is the termdenoting the spots of destroyed churches.Christian elements are preserved in many nuances of family andsocial life. The Christian notions are kept in the biblical plots and thenames of characters (Flood – tsargvna, Paradise – samotkhe, Hades –jojokheti, The Second Appearance – meored mosvla, the space picture ofthe universe – samkaros kosmiuri surati, Sky opening – tsis gakhsna, Easter– agdgoma, Virgin Mary’s day – mariamoba, Transfiguration –feritsvaleba, St. Lazare’s Day – lazaroba, etc. The symbol of cross onbread, maize-bread, and the things of everyday use is very interesting. Thiscircumstance is found in the folk calendar in the names of different months,such as the month of Christmas, the month of Virgin Mary, the month ofSt. John, and others. The memory of people has deeply engraved the namesof the Saints – Mariam, Nino, Tamar.137
