The complex was founded in the first half of the VI century by one of the Assyrian fathers called David. He came and settled in a small, natural cave in the Gareji Desert with his disciple Lukyan. That is how the monastery was founded, it was known in the later centuries by name David lavra.

Комплекс был основан в первой половине VI века одним из ассирийских отцов по имени Давид. Он пришел и поселился в маленькой естественной пещере в пустыне Гареджи со своим учеником Лукианом. Так был основан монастырь, его в последующие века называли Давидом Лаврой.
