Abstract

The purpose of the article is to study what traces of their stay the Kayi left in the Orangay region of Kazakhstan. This study utilises a range of scientific research methods, including descriptive, comparative, historical-critical, and dialectical approaches, as well as methods of analysis and synthesis. The investigation reveals that Orangay, situated within the Turkestan oasis and along a branch of the Great Silk Road, played a crucial role in the history of the Kayi tribe during the VIII-XI centuries. This region served as a focal point for the Oghuzes and witnessed the emergence of the Oghuz State in the Aral Sea region and the lower reaches of the Syr Darya. Orangay also marked the consolidation of the Kayi tribe, marking the beginning of their ascendance. Archaeological excavations in the Turkestan oasis provided concrete evidence of the direct connection between the Orangay region and the Kayi tribe, including the discovery of pottery adorned with snake patterns, characteristic of the Kayi tribe’s material culture. In conclusion, this research establishes Orangay as a historically significant region for the Kayi tribe during the VIII-XI centuries in Central Asia.
