Abstract
Allele and haplotype frequencies were determined for seven blood group genetic markers on a random sample of 366 individuals from two Georgian villages-Saberio and Alisubani. Genetic distance analysis shows that Georgians can be placed between the populations from the Northern Caucasian (West and Central) areas and the trans-Caucasian ethnic groups. An examination of the genetic relationship of Georgians with European and West Asian populations showed that Georgians are approximately equidistant from the groups compared.
