Gugars
The Gugars were a people of Caucasian Iberia, settling near the Debeda river, mentioned by Strabo.
They were presumably an early Georgian people .The toponym Gogarene, an integral part of Caucasian Iberia, is derived from their name. The region is first mentioned by Strabo who records it as a province of Iberia. Later it was renamed Gugark, after the conquests of Arshakid Armenian rulers in the 2nd century BC.
