Ancient Turkic Inscription

This ceramic piece, dating to the 5th–7th centuries CE, bears ancient Turkic inscriptions. The Old Turkic script was an alphabet used by Turkic peoples in Central Asia, serving as an important source for understanding the culture, history, and social life of that era. Such inscriptions, found on ceramics, stone, or metal, often conveyed ideas, historical events, or religious beliefs. This exhibit reflects the cultural richness, linguistic heritage, and craftsmanship of the ancient Turkic communities.
