@Kober:, are you sure that he became eristavi in 1600? According to Bedi Kartlisa (1964; p. 176), he acceded to the eristavate quite a bit earlier. I guess that this is another matter of older vs recent sources? - LouisAragon (talk) 02:58, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The date is according to Toumanoff. In fact, we have no primary source for that matter. Дворянские роды Росс. Империи ("DRRI") does not specify the date when he assumed the office and puts the end of his tenure at 1618. Allen frequently, but not always, relies on the chronology supplied by Prince Vakhushti, i.e. "old school" historiography.--KoberTalk15:03, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
