Kobulashvili

The Kobulashvili (Kobulidze; Georgian: ქობულაშვილი, ქობულიძე) was a Georgian noble family whose origins can possibly be traced back to K'obul, High Constable of Iberia (fl. 637/642), commemorated in the inscription from the Monstery of the Holy Cross at Mtskheta.[1]

The family was subsequently established in the Kingdom of Kakheti and confirmed as princes (knyaz Kobulov, Кобуловы) of the Russian Empire in 1826.
