Tsiskari (; Dawn) is a literary magazine published intermittently in the Georgian language from 1852 to 1875.
The magazine was founded in 1852 by the Georgian prince Giorgi Eristov, with the support of the Caucasian governor, Mikhail Semyonovich Vorontsov, who personally requested permission from Nicholas I to publish it. Vorontsov also immediately subscribed to 100 copies of the magazine for female students at the St. Nina educational institution, established by his wife Elizaveta Ksaveryevna.
