Perkhuli () is a Georgian predominantly male folk round dance. Of at least 20 versions of the dance, "multi-level" perkhuli is one of the most popular forms, performed by a group of dancers standing on the other group's shoulders, with music in time. Another version of perkhuli consists of slow and fast rounds, danced to music in time. The northwestern mountainous region of Svaneti is particularly rich in the perkhuli repertoire.ქართული საბჭოთა ენციკლოპედია, ტ. 10, გვ. 275, თბ., 1986 წელი.
