Under the scientific guidance of the National Directorate for the Protection, Study and Restoration of Historical and Cultural Monuments in Turkmenistan, archaeological, research and restoration work is being successfully carried out at sites in all velayats of the country.

According to TDH, excavations at the Paryzdepe monument in the Geoktepe etrap revealed a unique kariz - an ancient water supply system confirming the use of this method of hydraulic engineering in the Akhal Velayat since ancient times. This topic is covered in detail in the book by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov "Anau - culture from the depths of millennia".
