Ancient wheel cart found in Turkistan region

An ancient arba was found in the Arys River in Turkistan region. How much time it spent in the water, historians have yet to find out. But it is known that it was used about 100 years ago. The staff of the local history museum believes that the cart is of historical value. According to them, despite the fact that its two wheels were lost, the wood and metal itself remained in satisfactory condition. The artifact is now in restoration.

“In the near future, we plan to consult with qualified specialists and restorers of the Otyrar Museum. We have already sent them a letter. We’re hoping to work on restoring the cart,” said Erik Ashiberdiyev, a museum head.

In addition, ancient jugs and various utensils were previously found in the same area. All archaeological artifacts are presented in the local mosque-museum Ishan Bazar.
