Chaldois are of Hurrian origin
The claim of Georgian tribe is made only by Georgian. No any serious academic scholar in West think that Chaldois are Georgian tribe!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.157.217.201 (talk) 04:52, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I agree with this assessment. There is no mention of them being "a Georgian tribe" in the sources. The sources even question if they were a tribe at all. In addition, I have removed the Georgian transliteration of the name. The issue of modern language transliterations was discussed here . I think the lack of justification here is far more cut and dried than at Urartu - at least the exact location of Urartu is known, and corresponds to what would become Armenia, but for Chalybes its location is very vague and the same name may have been used to apply to different peoples.

Telchines
These people too are supposedly from the Black sea and are iron workers. You'd do well, I suspect, to find the links between them. Callimachus talks of them at Aetia 1.1. Catullus' translation of Callimachus' Lock of Berenice,(Catullus 66.48), talks of the Chalybes, otoh.

Khaly-Wa

Merger proposal
I propose to merge Chaldaioi into Chalybes. Chaldaoi appears to be an alternate name for Chalybes, so the article is a duplicate. Pepper Beast   (talk)  17:08, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * You can't. This identification is your guess. Not a proven, Non generally accepted fact. Sulh220 (talk) 16:25, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment I don't think I'm guessing.  Both articles are about a people called Χάλδοι who lived in Northern Anatolia near Lake Van, an area called Chaldia. It looks exactly as though the two articles are about the same group.   Pepper Beast    (talk)  17:50, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
