Janbas-Kala Fortress

Fortress Janbas-Kalala (Sloping) - a unique ancient landmark of Uzbekistan - built in the 4th century BC and served as protection and housing for the citizens of ancient Khorezm until the 1st century AD. To this day, twenty-meter walls with embrasures and powerful gates have been preserved. Archaeologists discovered the fortress in 1939, during excavations, many flint tools of good quality were found (which suggested that the inhabitants of the fortress were hunters and fishermen), fragments of ceramic dishes.
