Archaeologists of Khorezm Mamun Academy of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan continued their studies of the western part of the ancient monument of Kat-Kala.

According to the Academy of Sciences, the remains of a large monolithic platform are being studied.

The remains of pottery in the layers of early antiquity, as well as among the ceramics of this period, belong to the finds of the 5th century BC.

Archaic humps are also found. These conclusions require a revision of the data related to the construction and development of the city. It is known that such types of dishes were widespread in the 7th-5th centuries BC, not only in Khorezm, but also in other regions of Central Asia.

Among the finds, a ceramic statue stands out for its elegant workmanship. Sculptures of this type are common in the first ancient layers and other monuments of Khorezm.

Thus, an analysis of the available materials suggests that the main platform of the Kat-Kala site dates from the 2nd-4th centuries AD.
