Bactrian in Issyk‐Kushan Script
A bstract This article presents additional readings of several inscriptions written in the Issyk‐Kushan script, building on the improved system of sound values recently proposed by Sims‐Williams (2025b). We propose that some further lines of Dašt‐i Nāwur inscription DN III and parts of several other inscriptions can now be read as Bactrian, add new first‐hand data from the Almosi inscription site and suggest decipherments for a few previously und…
Rock Art in the Bartang Rock Shelter (Eastern Pamir)
The article presents the results of research on a newly discovered rock art site — the Bartang Cave located in the Kurtake Valley (Eastern Pamir, Republic of Tajikistan). The site was identified during the 2024 field surveys, and the archaeological study was conducted in 2025. The cave is associated with Jurassic limestone outcrops at an altitude of 4142 m above sea level. Five pigmentmade images were recorded in the cave. All of the images repre…
Mashale III
An objective of the Russian-Tajik expedition in 2024 included the discovery of new archaeological sites along the Mashale River (Eastern Pamir). Previously, during work conducted in the 1970s, V.A. Zhukov identified four Stone Age sites in this valley: Mashale I, rock shelter Mashale, Mashale II, and Jarty Gumbez. During recent surveys, two new caves, Mashale III and Mashale IV, were discovered. This reviews the preliminary results of the archaeo…
A Partial Decipherment of the Unknown Kushan Script
Several dozen inscriptions in an unknown writing system have been discovered in an area stretching geographically from Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan to southern Afghanistan. Most inscriptions can be dated to the period from the 2nd century BCE to the 3rd century CE, yet all attempts at decipherment have so far been unsuccessful. The recent discovery of previously unknown inscriptions near the Almosi gorge, Tajikistan, however, allows for …
New Data on the Rock Paintings of Eastern Pamir
Purpose. Until recently, it was thought that colonization of the highlands of Pamir by humans had started in the early Holocene. But some recent investigations, especially dating of well-stratified archeological sites such as Istyk cave, demonstrate that humans appeared in the region in the late Pleistocene period. One of the important pieces of evidence of humankind's presence in an area all around the world is the rock art. Despite that there a…
Preliminary results of investigations of barrows in the locality of Sarazm-2 in the basin of the Zeravshan River in summer and autumn 2020
The article is based on the materials of excavations of burial mounds in the Sarazm-2 area in the Zeravshan valley. The burial mounds of the Afanasievo culture were discovered here for the first time. In the Late Eneolithic and Early Bronze Age in the Zeravshan valley, close contacts of the local agricultural population with the carriers of the Afanasievo culture can be traced, which is reflected in the material culture of the ancient pastoralist…
Spatial risk assessment and the protection of cultural heritage in southern Tajikistan
Growing digital documentation of cultural heritage resources yielded from an increasing number of international projects, calls for the development of formal computational approaches to assess the risks that this invaluable material heritage is exposed to. This paper proposes a nuanced case-control approach to the risk assessment developed by the Central Asian Archaeological Landscape (CAAL) project for an area in southern Tajikistan. A number of…
