To explore historical toponyms in Mangystau, to identify and interpret the topoimages formed in this region, reconstruct the process of formation of the toponomastic image of Mangystau on the basis of that, to determine the mechanism of conservation of historical toponyms in the memory of the resident population for centuries.
These studies were mainly written in terms of describing the known toponymic objects of the region. A feature of our study is the consideration of the history of the formation of the historical toponyms of Mangistau in connection with the historical, linguistic, geographical features of the region, knowledge about the autochthonous people, the ethnogenesis of the tribes concentrated in the region, based on interdisciplinary methods. The purpose of the Mangystau toponomastic area research project is more complex than previous studies, the idea of the project is based on the creation of topographic images based on the relationship of historical toponymic materials with topographical objects and historical events, and the formation of a scientific opinion about certain historical periods. Our research is carried out with the help of cartography, historical etymology and interpretation.
