Beauty of the Uzbek culture and people.
Branch of the Altaic family:
Turkic
The Uzbeks (Self designation sg. O'zbek, pl.
O'zbeklar) are a Turkic people of Central Asia.
They comprise the majority population of
Uzbekistan, and large populations can also be
found in Afghanistan, Tajikstan, Kyrgyzstan,
Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Russia and the Xinjiang
Uyghur Autonomous Region of China. Smaller
diaspora populations of Uzbeks from Central Asia
are also found in Iran, Turkey, Pakistan, North
America, and Western Europe.
The origin of the name Uzbek remains disputed. One
view holds that it is eponymously named after
Uzbeg Khan, although the nomadic Uzbeks were never
entirely subject to him[citation needed]. An
etymological argument states that the name means
independent or the lord itself, from O'z (self)
and Bek (a noble title of leadership).
Contemporary indigenous sources usually used the
term Uzbek to refer to uncultured individuals,
especially nomads and rural peasants.
Although Altaic infiltration into Central Asia had
started early, as late as the 13th century AD when
Turkic-speaking and Mongol armies finally
conquered the entire region, the majority of
Central Asia's peoples were Iranic peoples such as
Sogdians, Bactrians and, more ancient, the
Saka--Massagetae tribes. It is generally believed
that these ancient Indo-European-speaking peoples
were linguistically assimilated by smaller but
dominant Turkic-speaking groups while the
sedentary population finally adopted the Persian
language, the traditional lingua franca of the
eastern Islamic lands. The language-shift from
Middle Iranian to Turkic and New Persian was
predominantly the result of an elite dominance
process.This process was dramatically boosted
during the Mongol conquest when millions were
either killed or pushed further south to the Pamir
region.
The modern Uzbek language is largely derived from
the Chagatai language, an Eastern Turkic language
which gained prominence in the Mongol Timurid
Empire. The position of Chagatai (and later Uzbek)
was further strengthened after the fall of the
highly Persianized Timurids and the rise of the
Shaybanid Uzbek Khaqanate that finally shaped the
Turkic language and identity of modern Uzbeks,
while the unique grammatical[17] and phonetical
features of the Uzbek language as well as the
modern Uzbek culture reflect the more ancient
Iranic roots of the Uzbek people.
