title: “Cultural Premıses” in Kultobe City
abstract: The article examines the premises uncovered as a result of archaeological excavations at the Kultobe settlement located in the city of Turkestan in 2019. In the center of these rooms there are foci with a hole (in some foci, vessels are inserted into the holes). Such foci in previous studies have been characterized as “foci-altars”. Generally speaking, premises similar to those of Kultobe were excavated at the sites of the Otrar oasis by K.M. Baipakov, which he designated as "cult premises". The
