This 1991 volume is the thirtieth issue of the foundational academic periodical "Ibero-Caucasian Linguistics," a principal forum for research exploring the potential genetic relationships between the three indigenous Caucasian language families: Kartvelian (South Caucasian), Abkhaz-Adyghe (Northwest Caucasian), and Nakh-Daghestanian (Northeast Caucasian). Edited by Besarion Jorbenadze and published by the prestigious Institute of Linguistics in Tbilisi, this volume contributes to the long-standing and influential "Ibero-Caucasian hypothesis," which held strong institutional backing in Soviet Caucasology. The issue includes a notable article by Ketevan Lomtatidze on the history of linguistic research in Georgia. Published in the pivotal year of the Soviet Union's dissolution, this softcover volume represents a significant scholarly artifact from a period of major political and academic transition, continuing the publication's rigorous tradition of linguistic analysis and historical-comparative studies.
