Among Zoroastrian burial items, there is a camel-shaped zoomorphic OSTADON lying there. It was found…
When studying the inscriptions on the eastern minaret of Oqsaroy, it was found that the inscriptions on it are a continuation of the text on the main facade of the western pylon, located on the tenon wall of the large portal.
They are repeated many times inside the wide band running down along the outer rim of the pylon (on the right of the corner prayer tower) and ending above the basement. The decorative stripe inside the band divides it into cartouches of two types: elongated with sharpened edges with small cartouches of the second type in the shape of six-petal buds placed between them. Both cartouches contain texts written in white letters on a dark blue background.
The large cartouches of the first type contain the repeated text that begins in the symmetrical band of the right pylon: العدل اساس الملك و شعار الملوك – «Justice is the fundamental principle of state and a motto of its governors».
