Abstract

While the bathhouses of Rome and Byzantium have received a great deal of academic attention in the West, the baths of the Islamic world, particularly those in the far Islamic East in Central Asia, have been largely overlooked and much scholarly research in this region has only been published in Russian. This paper is an attempt to readdress this regional bias by presenting an overview of medieval bathhouses in Kazakhstan, based largely on the results of a recent upsurge in commercial archaeological excavations in the country. Ten bathhouses are described, and the significant features of Kazakh baths are highlighted.

伊斯兰远东的城市澡堂

虽然罗马和拜占庭的澡堂在西方受到了大量的学术关注，但伊斯兰世界的澡堂，特别是在中亚遥远的伊斯兰东方的澡堂，在很大程度上被忽视了，而且该地区的许多学术研究只以俄语出版。本文试图通过概述哈萨克斯坦的中世纪澡堂来纠正这种区域偏见，主要基于该国最近商业考古发掘热潮的结果。描述了十个澡堂，突出了哈萨克澡堂的显著特征。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Islamic Archaeology is the only journal today devoted to the field of Islamic archaeology on a global scale. In the context of this journal, “Islamic archaeology” refers neither to a specific time period, nor to a particular geographical region, as Islam is global and the center of the “Islamic world” has shifted many times over the centuries. Likewise, it is not defined by a single methodology or theoretical construct (for example; it is not the “Islamic” equivalent of “Biblical archaeology”, with an emphasis on the study of places and peoples mentioned in religious texts). The term refers to the archaeological study of Islamic societies, polities, and communities, wherever they are found. It may be considered a type of “historical” archaeology, in which the study of historically (textually) known societies can be studied through a combination of “texts and tell”.
