EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the vibrant and colorful scene of Turkmen sellers offering their delicious sweets at the bustling market of Merv, an ancient oasis-city located in present-day Turkmenistan. The image, estimated to date back to circa 1909, transports us back in time to the rich cultural heritage of Central Asia, a region that was once a major hub on the historic Silk Road. Merv, also known as Margiana, was an important Achaemenid satrapy and later a significant Hellenistic city, with Alexandria at Antiochia being one of its most renowned settlements. The city's strategic location at the crossroads of various civilizations allowed for the blending of diverse cultures and traditions, as seen in this image of the Turkmen sellers. The sellers are proudly displaying their confectionary delights, which include Turkish delight, candies, and other types of candies, intricately arranged on colorful cloths. The sweets, known as lokum in Turkish, have been a cherished treat in Central Asian cultures for centuries, and their production remains a traditional craft passed down through generations. The Turkmen people, who are an essential part of the rich ethnic tapestry of Central Asia, are depicted in their traditional attire, adding to the authenticity of the scene. The warm, inviting atmosphere of the market, with its vibrant colors, lively energy, and the tantalizing aroma of the sweets, invites us to step into the past and experience the rich history and culture of this fascinating region.
