Prince Pavel Dmitriyevich Tsitsianov (Russian: Па́вел Дми́триевич Цициа́нов), also known as Pavle Dimitris dze Tsitsishvili (Georgian: პავლე ციციშვილი; 19 September [O.S. 19 September] 1754—20 February [O.S. 8 February] 1806[1]), was a Georgian nobleman and a prominent general of the Imperial Russian Army. Serving in the Russo-Persian War of 1804–1813, from 1802 to 1806 he also served as the Russian Commander-in-chief in the Caucasus. He also played a major role in the Circassian genocide, being one of the first Russian generals to start using genocidal methods against civilians in the Russo-Circassian War.[2] He referred to the indigenous Circassians as "untrustworthy swine" to "show how insignificant they are compared to Russia."[3]
