An oasis in Central Asia, situated about 4,000 feet above the river Tchertchen Darya ; the very hot‐bed and centre of ancient civilization, surrounded on all sides by numberless ruins, above and below ground, of cities, towns, and burial‐places of every description. As the late Colonel Prjevalski reported, the oasis is inhabited by some 3,000 people “representing the relics of about a hundred nations and races now extinct, the very names of which are at present unknown to ethnologists”. | '''{{Style S-Small capitals|Tchertchen}}'''.
