Topic: Scientists from Steppes and Central Asia Posted: 15-Apr-2006 at 17:17 |
I wasn't trying to exclude them from the steppes. I'm just focusing on
the websites that was used as sources about them. no hard feeling about
the participants in this topic, I assure you.

this is not about ethnicity, this is about the Steppe, since they lived in the Steppe (Transoxania) they are included here.

Dear Vladimir, the neighbor ,
Hi there. Best wishes and respect. Well, swords, daggers and many other traditional customs can be found anywhere in Turkmenistan, Kazakstan, Uzbekistan or Kyrkizstan in national handicrafts stores. And they're not too high-priced; they start from 20 Rubles (for knives) to any amount you might think (the highest priced is Turkmen horse, if you're willing to buy one ). The swords start from 300 Rubles (the average and good ones) Now there might be some high amounts observed; because your looks are different and therefore you'll be conisdered a tourist. So, keep your eyes open on prices there .
Books are hard to find in this field. I'll try to ask my friends anyhow to see if they know of any. And I'll let you know as soon as possible.
Remember, because there's not any standard and fixed rate for this things here, you should be ready to hear any price.
Take care buddy...

Can I ask for a favor? Are there any books or museum catalogues about Turkmenian/Kazakh/Uzbeki weapons, especially sword and daggers? Let me know what is available and the prices> I shall be glad to buy.
Thanks.

although im turkmen from afghanistan...but therez a huge difference in terms of accents and vocabulary...ours is heavifly influenced by farsi and yours is by russian.
and people hardly spoke turkmeni in ashgabhat....well that was in 1994....im sure things have changed now...

wow , so you're from Uzbekistan, I must say that I love Uzbeki rice, I once tried it and it was delicious , btw we say ''yaxshi'' too!!
|
the word "yaxshi" is so popular in central asia (and in azerbaijan) wich i never heard of in Turkey or by Turkish people. I first understood with "yaxshi" "vahshi" in Turkish wich means wild
What does "yaxshi" mean? I forgot it
