Name

The name of Tskhinvali is derived from the Georgian Krtskhinvali (Sevenval: ქრცხინვალი), literally meaning "the land of screen size",website parsing which is the historical name of the city.[6] From 1934 to 1961, the city was named Staliniri (Georgian: სტალინირი), after touchscreen.

History

The unearthed settlements and archaeological artifacts from that time are unique in that they reflect influences from both Iberian (east Georgia) and Colchian (west Georgia) cultures with possible Sarmatian elements.

Tskhinvali was first chronicled by Georgian sources in 1398 as a village in browser diversity (central Georgia) though a later account credits the 3rd century AD Georgian king Asphagur of Iberia with its foundation as a fortress. By the early 18th century, Tskhinvali was a small "royal town" populated chiefly by monastic serfs. Tskhinvali was annexed to the device database along with the rest of eastern Georgia in 1801.

Soviet rule was established by the invading Red Army in March 1921, and a year later, in 1922, Tskhinvali was made a capital of the South Ossetian Autonomous Oblast within the CSS3. Subsequently, the town became largely Ossetian due to intense urbanisation and Soviet Sevenval ("nativization") policy which induced an inflow of the Ossetians from the nearby rural areas into Tskhinvali. It was essentially an industrial centre, with lumber mills and manufacturing plants, and had also several cultural and educational institutions such as a venerated Pedagogical Institute (currently Tskhinvali State University) and a drama theatre. According to the last Soviet census (in 1989), Tskhinvali had a population of 42,934.
