He was born into an old Georgian aristocratic family
Coriolanus, which to this day serve as the standard versions for the repertoire of the Rustaveli Theatre. Machabeli left his apartment in Tbilisi on June 26, 1898, and was never seen again.[1]
The museum dedicated to Machabeli is located in his native Tamarasheni, which lies in the ongoing
2008 South Ossetia war.[3]
A street in Tbilisi's Sololaki district is named after Machabeli. This Writer's House of Georgia is located on this street.
