A Unique Phenomenon of World Culture

Turkmenistan, a country with a rich history and centuries-old traditions, is a treasury of cultural wealth recognised by UNESCO. At present, at the suggestion of Turkmenistan, thirteen objects of historical and natural heritage and ten objects of intangible cultural heritage have been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. By 2030, it is planned to include more than five objects of tangible cultural heritage and up to ten objects of intangible cultural heritage as candidates. As is known, the 18th regular meeting of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage was held in Kasane, Republic of Botswana, on December 4-9, 2023, during which a unanimous decision was made to include the art of Akhal-Teke horse breeding and horse decoration traditions in the UNESCO List of Outstanding Examples of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, which recognised the achievements of Turkmen horse breeders in breeding purebred Akhal-Teke horses as part of the world intangible cultural heritage. As UNESCO emphasises, “traditions associated with breeding this breed are an important part of the cultural identity of Turkmenistan, which contributes to the unity of the Turkmen people.” This is also an honourable duty to humanity to preserve the phenomenon of the Akhal-Teke breed as a phenomenon of world culture.

The principles of our wise ancestors are the model for people of all ages.

The Turkmen alabays are our national pride

When people read the Turkmen Alabay book by our Hero-Arkadag Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, they realize that our ancestors have always considered alabays as loyal companions and friends. The Turkmen alabays became the pride and national value of our people. The book consists of five chapters, including in ‘May the Rays of Prosperity Illuminate the World!’, ‘First and Loyal Friend’, ‘Childhood Friend – Loyal Friend’, ‘Symbol of Loyalty and Courage’, and ‘Some Notes in My Notebook about Thoroughbred Turkmen Alabay’. This valuable book provides important information about the role of alabays in the life, folklore, literature and creativity of the Turkmen people. The Turkmen proverbs about aim and happiness, namely, ‘a horse is an aim’, ‘dog brings happiness’, ‘my dog is my happiness’, prove that our people saw aims in horses and happiness in alabays. Thus, along with the antiquity, bravery, cleverness, courage, and intelligence of this breed, the book provides many historical sources to reflect the dogs’ loyalty and faithfulness and to increase the love for the Turkmen alabay, which is considered a faithful and loyal friend nowadays. The Turkmen Alabay International Association, established at the initiative of the President of Turkmenistan, demonstrates that the glory of our alabays, which provoke great interest in the world and differ from other dog breeds in their appearanc

Alabays are our national pride

Our national values provoke pride and inspire great respect in the revival of the new epoch of the powerful state. One of these values, which have enhanced the international prestige of our people, is brave, faithful and clever alabays. The Turkmen alabay was chosen the official mascot of the V Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games, held in our country in 2017 to play an important role in the recognition of Turkmenistan as a sports power. This fact demonstrated great respect of the Turkmen people for alabays. The 15-metre Monument of Turkmen Alabay in one of the most beautiful parts of our white-marble capital is another evidence of high esteem for alabays.

The basis of education

Along with different sports, special attention is attached to the Turkmen national games in our epoch. Our ancestors added the national principles, traditions, customs, as well as national games to the treasury of the world culture. The national games created by our ancestors have played an important role in the physical and mental development of the people and have preserved their importance at all times. The Turkmen people have always paid special attention to the upbringing of children and their development as many-sided individuals. The concern of the President of Turkmenistan for children is the pride of every parent. The living standards of our people are excellent. The upbringing of children should be perfect. In their turn, national games form the basis of education.

Land of Blessings

This was the name of a blooming oasis located in the ancient delta of the Murghab River in antique times, which amazed travellers with its fertility and developed culture. From time immemorial, the centre of that region blessed by all the gods was Merv. In that multifaceted and multi-tribal trade centre, located at the crossroads, artistic styles, cultures and cults of the East and the West developed interpenetrating with each other. And various religious beliefs were intertwined into the complex picture of confessional history – Zoroastrianism, Christianity, Manichaeism and Buddhism, which made the spiritual atmosphere of this ancient centre of world civilisation absolutely unique. A Buddhist stupa, a temple of the “great sacred fire” and an oval Christian monastery built almost nearby testify to the atmosphere of great religious tolerance.

The turkmen alabay– Our national value

Protecting national values and popularizing them in the world is one of the primary trends of the state policy constantly put into practice by our Hero Arkadag. Improving further the selection of species and the number of the Turkmen Alabay dogs became an important trend of wide-scale works carried out in this sphere. The book «Turkmen Alabay» by our Esteemed President tells about the role of the Alabay dogs in the life and fate of the Turkmen people. The book tells about the origin and development of the species of the Alabay dogs, about scientific research works, reflections, historical and literary information. In May of 2020 the «Turkmen Alabay Dogs» Association was established. Its main aim is constantly increasing the number of Turkmen Alabay dogs, using the national selection methods and dog-breeding traditions reaching the international level. And it vividly shows that the care for the Alabay dogs which are considered devoted comrades and the national pride on level of the country gives positive results. The archaeological finds discovered during the archaeological excavations in the territory of Turkmenistan in Altyndepe, Gongurdepe, in Nusay, in Dangdanakan located in 60 km. from ancient Merv prove that the Alabay dogs are one of the ancient the species. As a result of the archaeological excavations in different parts of our country historians discovered the traces

Old Fortress on the Banks of the Uzboy

The western part of our country abounds with sacred monuments. Mashat Messarian, Parav Bibi, Gozli Ata, Shibli Baba and Ibrahim Hoja are located there. There are also little-known historical and archaeological sites, situated far away from the urban civilisation, studied little and visited rarely. One of them is the ruins of the Igdy-kala fortress. While participating in field expeditions for many years, I happened to drive more than once not far from that place – just a few kilometres, but I visited the fortress only last spring, after I had determined its exact coordinates through satellite navigation. …In the spring, during the flowering and fruiting periods, the cover of dune sands makes an inimitable impression. Blooming populations of strigosella are scattered over vast areas and create a kind of mosaic effect on the dune slopes – the lilac-violet spots among tall grasses, “raging” in the wind, that rise during the short rain season. At that time, the blossoming and fruiting kandym, whose flowers emit a delicate aroma and whose fruits look like bushy balls, is charming. The bushes studded with brightly coloured “balls” resemble a New Year tree.
