The second stage is called "Developed Middle Ages". Its chronological boundary includes the IX-XV centuries. The third stage is called "Late Middle Ages". Its chronological boundary extends to the last quarter of the 16th-19th centuries. During this period, the gradual formation of feudal relations brought fundamental changes in society. The province of Fergana was not left out of these fundamental changes. In the construction of ancient cities, especially in the places where the settled population found a place, special attention was paid to its defense. The construction of defensive walls was of great importance in the structure of ancient cities. Therefore, attention was paid to the construction of the defensive wall, which is related to the construction of the city.
