Princess Bagrationi of Kiev
Princess Bagrationi was a 12th–13th century princess from Abkhazia, who was briefly grand princess consort of Kiev for a few months in 1154 by marriage to Iziaslav II of Kiev.
Biography
The princess is primarily known from an entry in the Kievan Chronicle under the year of 1154, in which she married the grand prince of Kiev:"Obez" means Abkhazia. Based on this fact, it has been conjectured that she was a Georgian princess of the royal Bagrationi dynasty. She would have been a daughter of King Demetrius I of Georgia, sister of the kings David V and George III and Princess Rusudan. She was a paternal aunt of the famous Queen Tamar of Georgia. Her first name is unknown, and nothing is known about her later life either.
