A new scientific short film screened at the Georgian National Museum last week takes a glimpse on the life of people who lived on the historical territory of modern Georgia in the Early Bronze Age, with the production now available for online viewing.

Premiered at the GNM on Friday and now available on YouTube, the work, entitled Life in Georgia 5300 Years Ago comes from Inga Martkoplishvili of the museum network, and illustrates daily life of settlements on the historical Kura-Araxes Culture.

The film is based on a years-long, multidisciplinary research of the remains of a settlement in the village of Tchobareti in Georgia's south, where items supposedly brought into the territory from Mesopotamia during the Early Bonze Age were unearthed during pipeline works in 2009.

The production features reconstructions of the historical communities' diets, dressing customs, living environments, cures used to combat diseases and more, identified through microparticle studies by scientists who worked on artefacts found at the site.

Martkoplishvili says in the film the teams took "samples from storage pits as well as settlement floor levels, utensils, grain grinders and also from skeleton" before studying the discovered particles and items and coming up with a microcosm image of the past.

A Georgian National Museum expedition carried out work on the Tchobareti site along with a team from the University of Melbourne starting in 2012, with remains of four types of grain discovered in digs a year later, before stone grain grinders were unearthed in 2014, suggesting developed farming techniques in the settlement.

A moult for metal items was also discovered in the location, indicating local production of items, while archaeological teams also came across a burial site with a skeleton.

The production of the film was supported by the Shota Rustaveli National Science Foundation of Georgia, as part of the institution's Research Grant for Young Scientists.
