The Czech-Uzbekistani archaeological team conducted archaeological surface surveys in the Sherabad district, South Uzbekistan between 2008 and 2011 and in 2014. This effort yielded a substantial amount of fresh archaeological data linked predominantly to the Kushan and Medieval periods.

Besides, some new Yaz culture sites and new material from the sites already known has been collected. The general picture shows obvious changes in the settlement structure compare to the Late Bronze Age with new central sites accompanied by satellite farmsteads in close proximity.

As very promising appears to be a newly discovered site of the Yaz I period in the Pashkhurt valley along with the traces of prehistoric irrigation system.
