Abstract
Abstract. This article analyzes the ancient calendar rituals of the Uzbek people based on archaeological sources. This study employs methods of historicity, comparative logical analysis, chronology, and objectivity. Rock art provides extensive insight into the astronomical beliefs of our people, the solar and lunar cults, mythological concepts tied to fertility, and seasonal rituals. Petroglyphs found at Soymalitash, Sarmyshsay, Bukantovo, and other archaeological sites attest to socio-cultural traditions associated with ancient agriculture, the worship of celestial bodies, and the calculation of the year. The results of the study demonstrate that the calendar beliefs and rituals of our ancient ancestors, based on astronomical observations, played a central role in their social life and culture.
