Pankisi kists: sociolinguistic aspect

Kists living in the Pankisi of modern Georgia in Georgian society for a long time were considered as the most adapted and integrated and related to Georgians - so much so that the majority of the population (who do not understand the historical and philological sciences) were perceived as one of the Georgian ethnic groups. This explains the fact that the interesting and complete adventure story of the appearance of cysts in Georgia is full of folklore versions. On the territory of Chechnya and Ingushetia, nowadays the term cysts is not used and the term Shashan as a single compact unit of the population, so this fact suggests that both of them was completely evicted from these places in different directions - one part moved to Georgia, and the other went to the Middle East, and today they are the same Mohajira Shashans who live in Turkey, Jordan and Syria. Our linguistic analysis of the speech of the Pankisi cysts confirms this hypothesis, since the speech of the Pankisi Jokoloyans and Duiis is an example of classical diglossia, which, despite two centuries of living together, is characterized by its own individual lexical and phonetic markers. We consider the reason by that they reflect not only the different epochs of their resettlement, but also the places of their original residence on their first-born.
