    The Mescheten (Ahıska Turkleri) are a Turkish-speaking ethnic group who lived in South Georgia (Samtskhe-Javakheti), near the Turkish border, until their forced resettlement in 1944. Today it is assumed that there are up to 600,000 Meshes worldwide, most of whom live in the successor states of the former Soviet Union, but also in Turkey and the United States.

    Originally, the name "Meschete" or "Meschete" included all residents of the region (Meschetien / Samtskhe, the western part of the greater Samtskhe-Javakheti region), regardless of whether they were Georgian, Turkish, Russian or Armenian.
