Аннотация

This article explores key aspects of the material culture of the population of the Sangzor-Zamin region, particularly in the Jizzakh oasis, at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. Special attention is given to traditional practices related to horse equipment and horse breeding. The author examines terminology related to equestrian gear preserved in the local dialects, analyzing their functional features and comparing them with similar terms used among other Turkic peoples. The study highlights the ethnolinguistic heritage of the Uzbek, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, and partially Tajik populations of the region, revealing both shared and unique cultural elements. The results contribute to the understanding and preservation of the linguistic and cultural legacy of Turkic-speaking communities.
