This article explores the development of urban centers in Ancient Khorezm based on their territorial-geographic location and specialization.

The study focuses on key archaeological sites like Khumbuztepa, Nurum, Koykirilgankala, and Qalaliqir-2, revealing detailed insights into craft production, religious infrastructure, and economic exchanges of the region.
