Kolkhis (Gürcistan) ile Hellen ilişkilerinin başlangıcına işaret eden kaynaklar yetersizdir. Bölgeye geldiklerinde Hellenlerin hayat tarzları ve onların yerel nüfusla olan ilişkilerine ışık tutan arkeolojik buluntuların çoğunluğu bize sadece bu yerleşimlerin başlangıçlarıyla bağlantılı öneriler sağlayan seramiklerden oluşmaktadır. Bölgede koloni öncesi ilişkiler MÖ VI. yüzyıl itibariyle sürekli yerleşimler şekline dönüşmüştür. Günümüze kadar Kolkhis’te dört yerleşim yeri kesin olarak tanımlanabilmiştir: Dioskurias-Eshera, Gyenos, Phasis ve Antik ismi hala bilinmeyen Pitchvnari. Biz bu çalışmamızda özellikle nüfus sayıları, tecrübe ve doğal kaynaklara ulaşma bağlamında bu Hellen kolonileri içindeki yerel unsurların da baskın ve diğer bir ifadeyle kültürel etkileşimin karşılıklı, benzer materyallerin kullanımı sonucunda ortak bir kültürün ortaya çıktığı varsayımı üzerine odaklanmaktayız.
