VIII century coins and manuscripts found in Ahsikent
New historical findings at the Ahsikent Archaeology Park have attracted public attention. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The collection has been enriched with unique exhibits. This time, the gathered treasure includes 68 ancient coins and 27 manuscript books dating back to the 8th century.

According to Anvar Ikrom, the head of the Archaeopark, the silver coins belonging to the Abbasid period bear decorations characteristic of that era and clear inscriptions in Arabic script. The discovered manuscripts contain valuable information on geometry, mathematics, astronomy, and medicine.

Additionally, there are coins from the Samanid and Karakhanid dynasties. Furthermore, coins minted in Sweden between 1667 and 1670, as well as in Great Britain in 1836, were also found.

Experts emphasize that the oldest silver coins date back to the 3rd century BC. Their obverse features the image of a ruler, while the reverse displays symbolic images, names of kings, and seals.

Currently, excavation work continues in the Yakkayigit garden of the Ahsikent complex, at the site considered the residence of Umarshaykh Mirza. The new findings have sparked great interest not only among the local population but also within scientific circles and the wider public.

This discovery once again confirmed that Ahsikent is a historical center with a rich cultural and scientific heritage.
