Tori is a historic region in central
Georgia, now part of the
Samtskhe-Javakheti region, together with
Javakheti and
Meskheti. It borders on
Trialeti to the east,
Imereti to the northwest and
Shida Kartli to the northeast. The province chiefly lay in what is now known as the
Borjomi Gorge. In medieval Georgia, Tori was in hereditary possession of the
Gamrekeli (Toreli) family. The name "Tori" went obsolete in the 15th century. Around the same time, it became a hereditary fiefdom of the
Avalishvili family.
