In Tajikistan, history has spoken once again. Ten new historical and cultural monuments, previously unregistered, have been discovered in the cultural heart of the country.
These historical discoveries were identified during the re-registration process of monuments in various regions of the country. This process has become more active in recent years and has placed major tasks before archaeologists.
Particular attention is drawn to the presence of two Buddhist temples among the new findings, dating back to the 7th–8th centuries. This may lead to new thoughts about the spread and influence of Buddhism in the region.
In addition, three monuments related to the Sassanid period were found. This proves that major states and cultures had mutual influence on the territory of Tajikistan. Also noteworthy is the discovery of two rock inscriptions from the medieval period.
According to archaeologists, rock inscriptions help not only to study the history of language and literature but also to understand the worldview and lifestyle of ancient people.
Moreover, three newly identified architectural monuments also deserve attention. These structures demonstrate how developed urban planning and engineering solutions were in their time.
According to Khojazoda, the head of the agency, these discoveries open the way for a deeper study of Tajikistan's history. "We are not only preserving existing monuments, but also correctly registering and transferring them to future generations," he said.
In Tajikistan, historical monuments are considered a national and public treasure. Therefore, the government pays great attention to this area.
The new findings are not only of scientific importance but also play a key role in boosting tourism potential. These places may attract both local and foreign tourists and allow them to witness history with their own eyes.
Currently, the re-registration of historical monuments continues throughout the country. Archaeologists and scholars are ready for new discoveries because the land of Tajikistan has yet to reveal many of its secrets.
These discoveries are an important step not only in the scientific field but also in understanding national pride, cultural identity, and future development. It feels as if Tajikistan is rewriting its history. And these pages are of interest to all.
