26.02.2025y.

The branch of the Mary Regional Museum of History and Local Lore in the city of Bayramaly is actively engaged in expanding its collection, aiming to preserve and showcase the rich cultural heritage of the region. As part of this endeavor, the museum regularly conducts expeditions to gather new exhibits that reflect the historical and ethnographic diversity of the Mary region. Recently, museum staff organized a series of field studies in the vicinity of Bayramaly, where unique artifacts from various historical periods were discovered. Among the findings are ceramic items, tools, household objects, and jewelry that shed light on the life and culture of ancient settlements that once existed in what is now Turkmenistan. Special attention is given to collecting ethnographic materials that reflect the traditions and customs of the Turkmen people. Through collaboration with local residents, the museum has received donations of national clothing, embroidered items, and tools, which will become valuable additions to the existing exhibition. The collected exhibits undergo meticulous scientific processing and restoration in the museum's laboratories before being presented to the public. The updated exhibition will allow visitors to gain a deeper understanding of the region's historical development and acquaint themselves with the cultural heritage passed down through generations. The museum expresses gratitude to all who participate in preserving and enriching the collection and invites visitors to explore the new exhibits that reflect the rich history and culture of the Mary region.
