Archaeologists have discovered
new data on the ancient history of the Turkistan region. Clay brick kilns were
found in the Azret Sultan state historical and cultural reserve museum. It is
believed that the objects found on the banks of the Karashyk River date back to
the 14th century and were built during the construction of the Mausoleum of
Khoja Ahmed Yasawi. Previous discoveries in the area included places for drying
bricks and a furnace for smelting non-ferrous metals, dating to the ancient
era. According to scientists, after a complete study of the monument—much of
which is under the rubble—it will be possible to create an open-air museum
along the Turkistan - Kyzylorda highway.
