Karakitai or Seljuk ?[edit]

The following sentence must be reviewed by an expert:"In the mid-12th century, an independent state of Khorazm along the Oxus River broke away from the weakening Karakitai". Because according to the article Khwārazm-Shāh dynasty the state of Khorazm didn't break away from Karakitai, it broke away from Great Seljuk Empire.

Khazars[edit]

In the section early history I looked up for Khazars who controlled most of West Kazakhstan between 8th and 10 centuries. I think this period has been skipped. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 08:01, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

population of Kazakh ASSR immediately before the famines?[edit]

Steppe Geoglyphs[edit]

Although at least one expert disputes the notion they are true geoglyphs (in which case that descriptive term might not be appropriate), I'm wondering if Wikipedia has an article yet on the mysterious ancient mounds discovered in 2007 in Kazakhstan, which are described in this 30 October 2015 New York Times article. Does anyone know more on this subject? Vesuvius Dogg (talk) 20:54, 30 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

(We've now imported Steppe Geoglyphs from Simple English Wikipedia and are improving it.) Vesuvius Dogg (talk) 15:54, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Mahandzhar culture[edit]

Was there a culture called the Mahandzhar culture in Kazakhstan in prehistoric times? 173.89.236.187 (talk) 19:20, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I wondered too ... looks like it. Info is scarce but the name appears in a list in this 2012 Advances in Anthropology article by Anatole Klyosov. It says

There are many Neolithic, Chalcolithic and Eneolithic archaeological cultures in the area, such as Tersek, Ural, Surtandi, Mahandzhar, Iman-Burluk, Botai, Atbasar, Kelteminar, and other archaeological Central Asian cultures in present-day Russia (e.g, Zakharov, 2010)...

They (Mahandzharskie) are also mentioned in this (French) article. The English transliteration of the Russian may be new/unusual. Twang (talk) 20:58, 28 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Madjars in the 1-8th centuries[edit]

Does anybody have a source for that? Darokrithia (talk) 20:30, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
