Georgia has reburied its most famous military general, whose remains were brought back from France.
General Giorgi Kvinitadze died there in exile after Georgia was defeated by the Soviet Union's Red Army a century ago.
The return of his remains was marked by a special ceremony on Georgia's Independence Day.
