The Return of the Throne by the Chagataiids

The Return of the Throne by the Chagataiids

Civil Wars of the Princes, Descendants of Haidu As we can see, without bloodshed, the leadership in Central Asia and the possession of Haidu passed into the hands of a descendant of Chagatai—Duwe. According to Vassaf (14th century), all these events occurred within one year. V. V. Barthold called Duwe the true founder of the Chagatai state. However, he ruled for a short time—he died of paralysis in 1307. In the region of Sebkun-Kala near the city of Almalyk, the son of Duwe, Kunjek, was

Byzhi – the oldest dish of Turkic hunters

Byzhi. One of the tastiest sausages is "byzhi," which is made from the intestines of a manually slaughtered ram and is stuffed with the animal's blood, among other things. Usually, when preparing byzhi, other internal organs are also stuffed along with the intestines: the duodenum, the stomach, toguz kat — the book (one of the sections of the stomach), and choychek karyn — the sleeve (the part of the stomach following the rumen). Byzhi is a kind of stuffed sausage.

The Growing Professionalism of Kyrgyz Artists in Ballet

Prerequisites for the Further Development of a New Type of Theatrical Art - Ballet. When the Kyrgyz professional theater was born, there was no question for it — to accept or not to accept realism. From the very beginning of the formation of the Kyrgyz theater, a fruitful line of realism developed within it. Its main features— the depiction of life in its constant movement, folk character and partisanship, patriotism and humanism, national specificity — became fundamental both for the birth of

Searches at the bottom of the bay continue The remote-controlled probe is a device that helped underwater archaeologists find more than a dozen metal artifacts in just one month of work. This has never happened before. Externally, the device is very simple: a small metal circle on a long handle.

The Struggle for the Throne of Haidu

Tokhta and Bayan against Haidu and Duva It should be emphasized once again that Chinese historians of that time tried to minimize the documentation of the victories of Khubilai's opponents and the successors of his brother Hulagu in Iran. Nevertheless, the overall context of written sources indicates that Haidu managed to expand his possessions in the east to Kara-Khodzha, and in the northeast to the western half of the Mongolian Altai.

To avoid being disturbed, he migrated with his aul far into the mountains. More than anything in the world,
