The towering mud-brick walls of the three fortresses at Ayaz-Kala, located in the Khwarezm region of Central Asia, rise dramatically from the surrounding plains. They were built on the edge of the Kizilkum Desert at different points between 4th Century BC - 7th Century AD, as a means of protection from nomad raids. Within the forts are the remains of palaces and traces of the local agricultural population have been found in the surrounding areas. Abandoned for 1300 years, the fortresses were rediscovered in the 1940s by the archaeologist S.P. Tolstov.
