Uzbek archeology discovered the legendary Alexandria of Oxiana, which the historian and geographer Ptolemy mentioned in his writings. The sensational results of the excavations will be presented by the Uzbek side as part of the Culture and Art Week of Uzbekistan, which will be held from 22 to 26 August in three cities of the republic - Tashkent, Termez and Samarkand.
According to Uzbek researchers, Alexandria Oksianskaya is located on the site of the site Kampyrtepa. Kampyrtepa is one of the oldest archaeological monuments on the territory of Uzbekistan.
