Biography

Otagho Shervashidze was born during the second half of the 12th century to duke Otagho I and his unknown wife. During his youth, he was titled as a "duke of Tskhumi" and succeeded his father on the throne of Abkhazia.[1][2] Nothing else is known about his reign except that he died in 1213. Following his death an interregnum began for a few years, until his son Dardin acquired the throne.
