This article presents the organizational and scientific aspects of one of the largest, not only on the scale of the former Soviet Union, but throughout the world, archaeological expeditions - the Khorezm archaeological and ethnographic expedition led by S.P. Tolstov. The history of the Khorezm oasis has always been in the focus of attention of archaeologists, historians, orientalists, art critics and other specialists, since the history of the evolution of Khorezm was based on complex irrigation systems, geographical location on trade caravan routes and localization on the border zone of mutual influence of the settled and nomadic population of the region. As a result, the paper lists and characterizes aspects of the uniqueness of this expedition in archaeological science.
