In accordance with the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan No. 792 dated September 21, 2019, "On the Fundamental Improvement of Archaeological Research," the National Archaeological Center was established (as the legal successor of the Institute of Archaeological Research named after Ya. Fulomov, founded in 1970). According to this resolution, seven departments were established within the Center.
The Department of Silk Road Archaeology studies the formation of ancient cultural communication routes in Uzbekistan and Central Asia, the impact of trade and transit routes on local cultures, as well as the development of cultural interactions that emerged in prehistoric times. It explores the relationship between nomadic pastoralist tribes of desert and steppe regions with settled populations in oases during the early metal age. The development of trade relations in antiquity is also studied in direct connection with the Great Silk Road.
The department's goal is to reconstruct the lives of ancient people through osteoarchaeological, archaeobotanical, archaeozoological, and biochemical analyses, as well as to interpret the subsistence systems of ancient populations.
