There are some villages in Khevi, Ertso-Tianeti, Kakheti (Shiraki), Kvemo Kartli (Gardabani) also where Khevsurians reside.

For a long time, Khevsurians have maintained their traditional culture: clothing, weapons, and polyphonic music.

In the old Georgian chronicle, Khevsureti and Pshavi are referred to together as "Pkhovi", while the Pshavians and Khevsurians themselves were called "Pkhoveli".

Anthropologically, Khevsurians have a slim, east Georgian type of face; due to harsh living conditions in mountain areas, many of them are thin.

In Autumn of 1811, the Khevsurians and Ingush joined the uprising that broke out in the region of Kakheti led by the fugitive Georgian prince (eristavi) Alexander.
