Urgench UZ - Ayaz Kala 02 - a photo on Flickriver

            Ayaz Kale (also Ayaz-Kala or Ayaz-Qala) in Uzbekistan, a group of clay fortresses is in Choresm. They date during the centuries shortly after Christ's birth.

The arrangement is on the edge the desert Kysylkum about 70 km of Urgench remotely and exists of three fortresses; a lower, middle and upper fortress. The middle and upper fortresses are on natural increases. 

They were built between the 4th century B.C. and the 7th century A.D. and the upper fortress is the oldest one. They served the protection of the local population before raids of nomads. 

At that time an oasis was in her immediate nearness. For about 1300 years the fortresses are unoccupied. In the 1940s they were rediscovered by the archeologist Sergei Pawlowitsch Tolstow and were exposed.
