Cities that became famous all over the world for their wisdom and individuality, amazed jihadists and merchants, witnessed some events, destroyed under the influence of devastating wars, as a result of the struggle for the throne and mutual strife, under the pressure of other external factors, these monuments are priceless treasures of our history. Valuable information about these exhibits is stored in the folklore sources of our people.

In the culture and worldview of the semi-nomadic and sedentary peoples who inhabited the Eurasian continent during the Golden Horde, a huge amount of folklore data has been preserved, stored in the memory of the people in connection with amazing events and unusual personalities. For centuries, these data have maintained historical authenticity from generation to generation as a result of cultural replenishment, perfection, rebirth, creation, perfection, and artistry. The places where these sources are found in oral literature are protected, revered and revered between countries. Some of them have been preserved in the form of hills and settlements reflecting pagan history, while others are in the form of domed, open mausoleums that from afar resemble munartakan, the watchful eye. No matter how the appearance changed, the lessons and mores were perceived by the popular consciousness as educational, practical lessons. It is with such a cluster of historical sites that we can find monuments in the lower reaches of the Syr Darya of the Golden Horde era.
