Development of archeology as a science before the establishment of the institute of archeology in Uzbekistan (70S of the XIX-XX centuries)

This article contains information about the influence of Russian archeology on Uzbek archeology in the XIX century, the stages of development of Uzbek archeology in the XX century, the development of archaeologists in the 50-60s of the XX century and the scientific basis of their archeological expeditions. The establishment of such a scientific institution has become of great historical significance not only for the Republic of Uzbekistan, but also for the peoples of the Central Asian republics. This is the cornerstone of the success of today's Uzbek school of archeology. The Institute of Archeology has held several international scientific conferences on topical issues of archeology (1973, 1986, 1988, 1991, 1994, 1997). The institute has a special doctoral scientific council for postgraduate and doctoral studies, archeology.
