Abstract
In the second part of the 19th century the territory of modern Turkmenistan was conquered by the Russian Empire. In 1904 the archaeological expedition of the Carnegie Institution (Washington, D.C.) conducted archaeological excavations in the Anau and Merv regions. It was the first archaeological excavations in Turkmenistan in the 20th century. After the October revolution in Russia (1917) Turkmenistan became part of the Turkestan Soviet Socialistic Republic. The Soviet period of archaeology in Turkmenistan can be divided into two periods: 1. 1917-1946; and 2. 1946-1991. During this period were excavated many famous sites such as Jeitun, Altyn-depe, Namazga-depe, Anau, Nisa, Merv, Murgab oasis sites (Yaz-depe, Gonur, and Togolok). After the independence of Turkmenistan (October 27, 1991) many joint archaeological projects have been established with foreign colleagues.
