Annotation.Western Kazakhstan is among the regions possessing the greatest geographical proximity to the historical center of the Ulus of Jochi state.The emergence of numerous settlements along the trade caravan routes leading to the Lower Volga region was a natural phenomenon.Therefore, today, the study of the region's monuments and the identification of communication routes are the focus of attention.The aim of the research is to determine the areas of concentration of known monuments based on the results of archaeological research and to identify potential zones for new trade connections and monuments.To achieve the research objective, areas with a concentration of known monuments were identified, and probable zones and directions for the location of monuments for future research were determined by comparing them with trade routes marked on 19th-20th century maps.As a result, several probable directions were identified within the territory of the West Kazakhstan region.
