Khvamli

Khvamli ((グルジア語:ხვამლი)) or Khomli (ხომლი) is a limestone massif in western Georgia, located on the territories of Tsageri and Tsqaltubo municipalities and forming the watershed division between the Rioni and Tskhenis-Tsqali river valleys. It stands at and forms a double cuesta, consisting of Cretaceous limestone units and covered by mixed forests. It presents to the south a bluff face of height. Both cuestas have a northward-facing scarp perforated by numerous sinkholes and caves. Most important of the caves is called Tekenteri (თეკენთერი) and has only one entrance—through the hollow of a large beech tree.〔Maruashvili, L. I. (1981), "Features of Mountainous Karst of the Southern Part of the USSR. Georgia as an Example", p. 270. In: Sharma, Hari Shanker (ed.), ''Perspectives in Geomorphology'', vol. 1, Concept Publishing Company.〕
The caves of Khvamli feature in the 14th-century Georgian chronicle as the abode of treasures of the kings of Georgia.〔Allen, William Edward David (1932), ''A History of the Georgian People: From the Beginning Down to the Russian Conquest in the Nineteenth Century'', p. 334. Taylor & Francis, ISBN 0-7100-6959-6〕 A local legend also makes Prometheus enchained to the bluffs of Khvamli, being perpetually tortured by a raven.〔(Comments of Association Green Alternative and CEE Bankwatch Network on Namakhvani HPP Cascade Project Draft Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) Report dated April 2011 ). Green Alternative. June 14, 2011.〕
==Tekenteri cave==
The Tekenteri cave is located at above sea level. Its only entrance—the hole of a large beech tree—has no bottom but the karst sinkhole deep, with a lake of cold, clean water. A water stream stemming from it flows through a horizontal passage to form a waterfall, judging by noises from the depths. There are many metal buckets and pitchers floating in the lake, suggesting that cave water had been used by locals for many years.〔
