THE SYSTEM OF STATE ADMINISTRATION IN ANCIENT KHOREZM IN THE 4TH–2ND CENTURIES BC: BASED ON ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND NUMISMATIC EVIDENCE

This article analyzes the system of state administration in Ancient Khorezm during the 4th–2nd centuries BC based on archaeological and numismatic evidence. The study examines the administrative and territorial organization of agricultural oasis districts, forms of local governance, the role of councils of elders, and the interaction between local authorities and central power. Special attention is paid to temple complexes and their economic and administrative functions, as well as the role of religious centers in political governance. Archaeological materials from Ayaz-Kala, Kalaly-Gyr, Koy-Krylgan-Kala, Akchakhan-Kala, and Toprak-Kala are used to reconstruct the evolution of central and local administrative structures.
