The analysis of general Kartvelian and Sumerian vocabulary specifies on the linguistic-cultural being of proto-kartvelian in Mesopotamia during Sumerian period (IV–III of millennium B.C.). Probably tribes with a proto-kartvelian language participated in the process of addition of Sumerians and their language.
