Archaeological exploration work

On January 12, scientists of the Saraishyq Museum-Reserve conducted an archaeological survey on the opposite bank of the Zhaiyk River, on the side of Buqar, where the medieval city was supposedly located. During the survey, the visual inspection method was used. In order to test the hypothesis of the existence of a settlement on the Asian side of the Zhaiyk River, the stratigraphy of the cliffs of the Zhaiyk River, the vicinity of Buzaýtúbek district, as well as the vicinity of Qyzyljar and Qalabasy were studied. This time, no obvious signs characteristic of a medieval city were found from the surface of the earth. It is proposed to continue research with the help of pits when it gets warmer.
