The
monograph makes the first step to generalize numerous materials on archaeology,
history and architecture of Ustrushana, a medieval possession located in the
geographical centre, between Sogd and Bactria, on the one hand, and Chach and
Fergana, on the other. Note that this possession played a significant part in
the social-economic and ethno-cultural transit between these regions, in
particular, and the entire northern part of the Central Asia, as a whole.Not only
did long-term archaeological explorations provide a great volume of historical
data but also highlighted Ustrushana’s essential role in the process. Note that
at present Ustrushana as a part of Uzbekistan and Tajikistan made its peculiar
contribution to the treasury of Central Asian and the world civilization as a
whole.
The monograph is of interest not only to
specialists, archaeologists and historians but also those who show interest in
the past of Central Asian peoples.
