Ersari in Turkmenistan from past to present

Turkish communities have maintained their existence by dispersing to different continents of the world, especially to different points of the Turkestan geography since the earliest times. They have preserved their own cultural heritage and understanding of life, as well as preserving their own selves in these large geographical areas where they have established dominance. While Turkish tribes adopted an independent lifestyle, when the state was established in the upper stage, they became dependent on it. Within the framework of this attachment, there have always been regions where each tribe and community dominates and sustains their lives. Turkmenistan is located in a geography of great importance in terms of its history. This geography has always been the gateway to important political, military, commercial and migration routes throughout history. In this geography, which is of such importance, the tribes had a large share in the formation of the state. Ersarı tribe is one of the biggest elements of this partnership. Errsarıs have been the carrier masterpieces of Turkmen culture from past to present in terms of both their height characteristics and lifestyles in shaping the Turkmen culture. Ersarıs, about whom we get the first information in Ebul Gazi Bahadır Khan's Secere-yi Terakiname, emerged from the outer group of the Salur tribe in XIII. centuries and lived a mountainous life after the Mongol invasion. Ersarıs, who gained power in the region under the leadership of Ersarı Baba, preserved their existence until today's Turkmenistan after his ancestry. Ersarıs, who came from the Balkan region to the Lebab province and its surroundings, were tried to be removed from their own culture with the Soviet occupation. After this period, the Ersarıs, who continued their unique culture despite all the prohibitions, have continued their existence here as the domino of Turkmen culture from the earliest times to the present.
