Ce Qui a Été Découvert Dans Les Sables de L'Ouzbékistan Était Resté Enfoui Pendant 2 000 Ans.

An unnamed hill in southern Uzbekistan. No one knew what it concealed. Beneath it: a fortress, a palace, workshops, and two-thousand-year-old murals, hidden until 2023. Baburtepa has just been added to the archaeological map of Central Asia—and that same year, more than a hundred other previously unknown sites were discovered in the Kashkadarya oasis alone. How many cities like this one still lie buried beneath the sand? In this episode: the excavation led by the Samarkand Institute of Archaeology, six centuries of occupation straddling the Seleucid world and the Kushan Empire, and what population genetics reveals about the human mixing that has shaped Central Asia since the Bronze Age.
