ETHNOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF THE TRADITIONAL COSTUMES OF THE INHABITANTS OF THE BUKHARA OASIS IN THE LATE XIX -EARLY XX CENTURIES

Abstract

In this article, an ethnographic analysis of the national costumes of the population (Uzbeks, Tajiks, Jews, Iranians, etc.) living in the Bukhara oasis in the late 19th and early 20th centuries is carried out. This raises the question: what is the purpose of studying clothing? In ethnography, it is important to determine the ethnogenesis of a person, the lifestyle and clothing are of great importance. Clothing helps to obtain detailed information about the lifestyle, living conditions, character, gender, position and social origin of the people who lived in their time. For example, the women of the Bukhara oasis wore several dresses made of expensive fabrics to show their high social status
