Mziani (Georgian: მზიანი) is a village in the Ozurgeti Municipality of Guria in western Georgia.[1] The village lies within an area of known ancient metalworking furnaces, and was the focus of a 2010 magnetic survey by Oxford University.[2] One of the furnaces identified by the magnetic survey was subsequently excavated.[3]
