Boysun’s ancient history. In the settlement 
Poyon-Korgon located in the foothills sur-
rounding the mountains, the nomadic 
tribes residing in the foothills of the Bud-
dhist monument, the Cossack-era ceramic 
pattern depicts a wide range of sky and 
mountains. Boysun Istahri and his author 
are known as Basand in the book Hudud 
al-olam. [2] SH According to Kamoliddi-
nov, when Basand was localized, he was in 
the present-day Baysun district. Boysun 
was one of the oldest cities on the trade 
route, which was welcomed through the 
Iron Gate (Darband), from the old Sogdian 
caravans. [3] According to Istahri, Basand 
gardens were large and large. Basand is a 
two-day drive from Chagnaion. It is writ-
ten in the works of “Hudud al-olam”, Ibn 
Khaqal and al-Thani; Basand is a large, 
densely populated city with its rich and 
resilient inhabitants, standing at the foot of 
the city, along the caravan route to Samar-
kand and Bukhara.[4] As a result of ar-
chaeological research, the monument of 
Poyangurgan, which belongs to the first 
Iron Age, has been examined by nomadic 
breeders. The ceramic and archaeological 
finds found in this monument and sur-
rounding area indicate that Basan, men-
tioned in the sources, is located here [5]. 
This is evidenced by the fact that the Ba-
sand and Boysun names coincide, and the 
medieval carriageway from Samarkand 
and Bukhara to Chagnaion is exactly the 
same. [6] In the medieval sources, Iron 
Currant (Kapap) [Mustawfi, p. 180, 244]. It 
was also mentioned in the Middle Ages by 
the name of the other Turkish name Bah-
celi. [Al-Shamiy, p.55]. In the medieval 
Baysun Mountains, the Buzghala-room 
gorge was a border crossing point known 
as the Sughd and Takharistan from the 
early Middle Ages [Rtveladze, 1986, p. 34-
39]. Being located on the iron gate, Boysun 
has not lost its significance as a border 
point in the Timur and Timurid era. In the 
sources of the Amir Temur era, the fre-
quent mention of Baisun is a clear indica-
tion. The name “Zafarnoma” is also men-
tioned in the Baysun district. In the 19th 
century Boysun was the center of one of 
the three halls in the present Surkhandarya 
region during the Bukharan Emirate, 
where the native Uzbeks and Tajiks lived. 
According to N.A. Maev’s diaries, the true 
name of Boysun is Boyshin, meaning 
“Rich, Rich Tree”. It seems that Maev came 
to this conclusion because the Uzbeks who 
were nomadic Uzbeks had made a living. 
[7] According to Kamaliddinov, Boysun 
means “Great mountain or high mountain” 
consisting of “Boy” and “Sin”. [8] Another 
author, Yo. Hojamberdiev writes that rich 
people who had driven their horses from 
west to east were now living in the territory 
of present-day boys and looking after their 
livestock. Many of such nomadic cattle-
breeders have settled down in Boysun, 
which is called Boyshindi, which is richly 
rich, and has been named Boyshin> 
Boyin> Boysun [9]. Of course, this infor-
mation is a popular etymology. The word 
“rich” has a variety of meanings in Turkic 
languages, and in some cases it is under-
stood as a wealthy person, wealthy, wealthy 
man.[10] In addition, the word “rich” was 
also used in the ancient Turkic language in 
terms of body, gvda, gag. [11] Turkic, Tur-
kic, and Azeri languages, Bismar has been 
described as medieval in Turkish as “high,

balanced”. [12] According to T. Nafasov, 
Baysun’s word was rich in ancient times; 
Great, huge, huge, abundance, greatness. 
For example, the ancient name of Baykal 
Lake is exactly the Turkish Boykul, mean-
ing the great lake, the great lake. The Tyan 
Shan Mountain was called by the ancient 
Turks as Bai-Shan, China’s historian Sima 
Syan said that the Tyan Shan mountain 
was Bai-Shan. We can see from this that in 
the later sources, Tyan Shan, the name of 
the mountain of God, derived from the 
word “Bay-shan,” meaning majesty, majes-
ty, and power. [13] The word sinus in 
Boysun refers also to elevation meanings. 
[14] Thus, if we look at the information 
given above, we can see that the name Bay-
sun originates from the name of the Great 
Mountain, the Great Mountain, the Great 
Pond, and the name of the city called Ba-
sand, the city of Baysun.
