Samshvilde Sioni church, built in 759-777 by the local grandees, Varaz-Bakuri, his brother Johan and sister Deborah, called “the Queen of Samshvilde”, direct descendents of Pitikhshi of Kartli is the most significant of all other cult building remains. It’s worth of mentioning that the reign of the byzantine Emperors Konstantin V Komprinimus and Leon IV the Khazar is indicated in the church built in the country where the Arabs had been rulling. This fact hardly can be regarded as accidental — it rather reveals political tendency, perhaps a protest against the Arabs.
