    Did Svans migrated in masse to other regions of Georgia?

    mmm
    I dont see my answer
    so again
    Svans migrate to big cities of Georgia like Tbilisi (Kutaisi etc)
    also
    Svans like other high mountain Kartvelian population are being settled into Southern provinces of Georgia which have no population because of the last centuries wars with Ottomans/Persian empire/Russia so on
    They also brought colonial population/or other ethnic minorities/ or there are no population/ no population lands were settled by neighbour ethnic groups (like Ossetians did and now we here here three Ossetia. They are everywhere - South, Eastern, Trialeti Ossetia, good Ossetia, bad Ossetia. Ossetians were everywhere).
    so we dont want to repeat "Ossetian" case and these regions were or are being settled by mountainous Kartvelians
    its good for Kartvelian language group but bad for seperate mountainous Georgian ethnogroups or Karvtelian peoples

    I have an interest in intra-Kartvelian migration. Do you have a sources about Georgian migration during Arab and Ottoman invasions (not Ossetian or Armenian)? Which Kartvelian groups were involved to repopulation of devastated lands?

    there were mass migrations
    my mother village in Kakheti was annihilated by Turcomans of Iran (Sefevid dinasty)
    I read then that then it was settled by migrants from Kartli and then Western Georgia - Racha, Imereti. I see it myself by surnames of the village. My mother's ancestor was from Mingrelia.
    Also there were mountain Eastern Georgians from Mtiuleti in neighbour village
