This research is a continuation of archaeological work, which since 2015 has been carried out annually by the researchers of the Scientific Center of Archаeology and Ethnography of the Korkyt Ata Kyzylorda University with funding from the Akimat of the Kyzylorda region. The article reports the preliminary results of fieldwork in 2022, where scientific research was conducted on three main objects of the medieval settlement of Zhankent: excavation No. 1 – a residential quarter in the eastern part of the settlement; excavation No. 2 – the western fortress wall of the citadel; excavation No. 7 – the main entrance gate on the eastern bypass wall of the settlement. An additional detachment carried out preventive conservation on the open architectural structures of excavation sites No. 1 and No. 2. A brief overview of the analysis of archaeological material for the current field season is also presented separately.
