Ekvtime Takaishvili has a priceless devotion to rescuing and returning to Georgia the national treasury, which was kept abroad for years. However, his academic research work and legacy, without which Georgian humanitarian science could not have been founded, have never been fully appreciated. Ekvtime Takaishvili was a historian, archeologist, ethnographer, numismatist, philologist, folklorist, Rustvelologist, linguist, and tireless guardian of Georgian culture.
