Odishi

a village near the city of Zugdidi, in the Georgian SSR, near which the Soviet archaeologist A. N. Kalandadze in 1936 and 1937 excavated a Neolithic site with an area of approximately 1½ hectares. Among the finds were flint microliths—primarily various kinds of insets—stone pestles, grinders, hoes, and axes, some of which were polished. The pottery included small flat-bottomed pots without handles but with holes near the rim for cords; the pots were decorated with incised, dashed lines and impressions of grain. The Odishi complex is characteristic of the culture of the early pottery Neolithic of the Western Caucasus.
