Кеywords- Kesh, Kis, Kishsh, Suse, Kuhandiz, herna, rabod, inner rabat, madina, rustoq, village. INTRODUCTION: Kesh-Shakhrisabz is one of the most developed cities in Central Asia, where the roots of urban planning dates back to VIII-VII centuries BC. Kesh fought for a leading position in the early medieval Sogdian confederation. Until the middle of the 7th century Sogd was the administrative and political center. [1.P.54 . ] METHODS: First, we will analyze the information about the cache in Shahrisabz. Hence, in the work of Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari (839-923) in his book, "History of Ar-Rasul va-l-muluk" (Historical Tabari), the narrative of historical events from 915 to 915 centuries, including the 7th and 9th centuries. and cache history. [2.P.56 .] In the tenth century Persian, Khudud-ul-'Alam, the city contains a shakhristan, a ghost and a rhubarb, with its use of river water flowing through it, extracting salt and other scarlet material from nearby mountains. [3.P.13.] In the book "History of Bukhara" by Abubakr Muhammad ibn Ja'far Narshahi (899-959), the town and region of Kesh are mentioned several times, although they are mainly about the medieval history of Bukhara. In particular, more than 120,000 troops from Sughd, Kesh, and Nakhshab were trained and prepared for war against the Arabs. [4. P.115-116. ] In the section of cities table by Abu Raykhan Beruni (973-1048) in "The Law of Mas'udi", Kesh is given in the cities of the fifth climate, and its coordinates, geographical length and geographical width are 390501. [5.P.426.] In the encyclopedia "Kitab al - Ansab" by Abu Sa'd Abdulkarim ibn Muhammad al-Sam'ani (1113-1167), Kesh was described as a separate province. The city of Kesh is smaller than Nahshab, and it is said to have pronounced the name of the locals as Kishsh. The book also names and names the ten villages in Kesh Province.[6.P.28 .] The Arab traveler Ibn Khawqal, who came to Kesh in the tenth century, said that Kesh was made up of "khandiz", "madina" and "rabod", another city was intertwined with "Madinah", and the inner city and ruins were in a foreign city. , the government house is located outside the city, the dungeon and the mosque are in ruins, the markets are in ruins, the buildings are made of clay and wood, and the walls of the inner city are "Bab al Hadid" - "Bab Ubaydullah" - "Bab al Qassarin" al- Madina ad Dohila The presence of nutrients in the outer city, and information about the gates of Bab al Madina ad Dohila and Bab Barknon.[7.P.65-66 . ] Al-Holyi described Kesh as a "very big city" and said that one side of the city was about one- third, while, according to Ibn Havqal, the area was about one-third. In medieval written sources, this ancient city and its place of residence are mentioned in the form of Kash-Kashsh, Kas-Kos, Kis-Kiss. In ancient Chinese chronicles the name of the city is "Sushie", "Tsishi" or "Suse". There is also evidence that some of the Turkic languages use the word Kesh in the sense of water. [8.P.44.] Academician A.Muhammadjonov also studied various forms of the term Kesh in some of the place names mentioned in written sources, including Kasbi, Kosdori, Koson. , Kosonsoy, Koshon and Kesh lexeme and all their synonymic forms are derived from the words Sogdian word "katata", which means "home" or "residence", which means more than "home" or "room". meaning, "kat" l ksemasi not only the 'house' or 'house', even in large and small cities in the district where the villagers also refers to the benefit that. [ 8.P.45.] ISSN: 2005-4238 IJAST 1492 Copyright ⓒ 2020 SERSC International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol. 29, No. 5, (2020), pp. 1492-1495 3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS. Considering the same meaning of country and country, we can see that the name "Kesh" means "home, village, city, capital, region, country, country, country." Generally, the cache toponym means the place of residence. According to A.Raimkulov's research, the Shakhrisabz Gate has a length of 1,680m, and its width is 1,200 to 1,250m, and the total area of the city is 210. The historical topography of Kesh-Kitab was initially studied by Mason Masson. A study by Archaeological Topographic Expedition of Kashkadarya members on the territory of Kitab City in the 1960s and 1970s reveals that the medieval city of Kesh was in the area of the Bookstore in the later centuries[9.P.64.]. It is also said in the research that the walls of the ancient fortress, which appeared in later centuries, were built on the walls of the VII-VIII centuries [ 10.P.24-25.] The issue of moving Kesh to Shakhrisabz is a matter of controversy. Some studies suggest that the city has been in its place since the 11th-12th centuries, while other studies date it to the 14th century. In particular, in the studies of M.E Masson and G.A Pugachenkova, it was recognized that the city emerged after the 13th century and was explained by the construction of the city walls during the time of Amir Temur, that is, 1378/79. The same is true of other research scientists. [ 11.P.26-27.] According to SK Kabanov's study, the present location was the ruin of Kesh-Kitab. [14.P.93.] It is believed that the city walls of Kesh-Shakhrisabz were built in the 11th-12th centuries, during the Karakhanids. One of the southwest gates of Cache Book is called Bob Barknon and is located on the road near the town of Barknon. Studies show that the large village of Barknon Shakhrisabz was originally a "satellite town" of Kesh-Kitab, and later Shakhrisabz-Kesh was formed on this basis. [ 12.P.12-13.] According to some researchers, the defensive walls of Kesh-Shakhrisabz were built on cultural layers of the X-XII centuries, and Shakhrisabz was founded during the Mongol rule [13.P.208-215.]. Kesh-Shahrisab was not destroyed during the Mongol invasion. This is why the city was inhabited during the rule of the Mongols. According to research conducted in Shakhrisabz-Kesh, the process of expansion of Kesh-Shakhrisabz into the city began in the X century, at the end of the Samanids, mainly Karakhanids. According to archeological investigations in Shakhrisabz instead of the Blue Dome Mosque, the mosque was built of brick in the 12th century. [ 11.P.44-45.] According to a study conducted by members of the Kashkadarya Archaeological Topographic Expedition in 1963-1964, the highest height of the city's defensive walls was 11 meters, and the thickness was 3.5-9 meters, and the thickness of the joint defense towers was 17.5 meters. The total length of the walls is 5.6 km, with a total of 70 defensive towers. In 1982 studies, ceramic items of the 11th-12th centuries were found in the underground cultural layer, and the Aksaray architectural complex was built on the cultural layers of the 11th-12th centuries. [14.P.96. ] The ruins of the XI-XII centuries building were found beneath the Blue Dome Mosque, indicating that this mosque, built by Mirzo Ulugbek, was built on the basis of the ancient mosque built in the 11th and 12th centuries. This is explained by the fact that during the Karakhanid era, huge architectural buildings were erected in the Kesh-Shahrisabz area. The fortress walls were built by the Barlossian princes in the late XIII - early XIV centuries. [ 14.P.97.] Recent research indicates that the wall of the Kesh-Shahrisabz fortress was built in the early XIII century from the layered paisa, which is typical for the construction of khorezshahs. Brick walls dating to the Samanids were found. In a 2014 study, baths were found in the first half of the 14th century, 50-55 m east of the town's market. It was discovered that the building was built of durable bricks in the Movarounnahr architecture that followed the tradition of baths dating from the eleventh and eleventh centuries. [14.P.98.] The administrative division of the cache oasis is based on their strict natural boundaries. Specifically, in the X century, the oasis of the Kesh oasis - Kesh, Rud, Balandaran, Rasmain, Kashk, Aru, Buzmajin, Siom, Arghan, Jarj Gud, Huzor Rud, Khuzor, Suruda, Inner Sangardak, External Sangardak, Maymurg. It consists of sixteen roses. [15.P.13.] The mountainous and foothill zone of the northeastern northeastern part of the Kashkadarya River is called Asrud, or Suruda. The small Suru River is located in the mountainous and foothill areas of the southern part of the Zarafshan range. ISSN: 2005-4238 IJAST 1493 Copyright ⓒ 2020 SERSC International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol. 29, No. 5, (2020), pp. 1492-1495 There is no exact information on the location of the bubble. Further research suggests that it is located to the south of the Kashkadarya ridge, in the Jinnidarya Valley, one of the left tributaries of Kashkadarya. [14.P.82.] The Jajrud rust was just one mile north of Kesh along the Kitabdarya River.

  • Detailed Social and Gender Assessment
    Horticulture Value Chain Infrastructure Project (RRP UZB 51041) Supplementary Document 17: Detailed Social and Gender Assessment SOCIAL AND GENDER ASSESSMENT A. Introduction 1. The importance of agriculture to the economy of Uzbekistan has significantly declined since 2000; in 2016, agriculture contributed 18.1% to the country’s gross domestic product (GDP),1 down from 34.4% in 2000. However, agriculture is the second largest employer after services, providing a third of national employment. Uzbekistan also continues to be the major supplier of fresh and processed fruits and vegetables to the neighboring countries, especially Kazakhstan, the Russian Federation, and 80 other countries around the world. Agriculture production also provides vital livelihood opportunities to majority of rural households. 2. The proposed project will finance the establishment of agro-logistics centers (ALCs), initially for horticulture, in two locations—Andijan and Samarkand—taking into account international best practices. Such infrastructure will provide all necessary facilities and services under one roof: storage, auction, food safety certification, customs clearance, quarantine, transport, shipping, expert market advice, trade finance and commercial banking etc. The project will help increase production of agricultural products with higher value-added and thus will directly and indirectly benefit significant number of people dealing with production, marketing, processing, storage and export of the agricultural produce. 3. The ALCs will help expand horticulture
