What is "mirimanidze"

The Mirimanidze ("sons of Miriman") were a Georgian noble family of Armenian ethnicity whose members rose in prominence in the service of Iran’s Safavid dynasty. In the later Safavid era, Husayn-Qoli Khan (Vakhtang VI of Kartli), the last Safavid wali (governor) of Georgia, confirmed the family as belonging to the t'avadi (upper class nobles).
