Аннотация
This article addresses the problem of fragmented and multilingual sources on Aksikent (medieval Fergana, 11th–16th centuries) – a major urban and political center. Despite rich written, numismatic, epigraphic, and archival materials, no unified digital bibliography exists to support systematic research on the history of statehood. The study proposes a methodological framework for creating a digital bibliography that integrates manuscript sources, archival documents, numismatic data, and archaeological records using digital tools (TEI XML, Omeka S, QGIS, Wikidata). The significance of such a digital bibliography is demonstrated through a case study: reconstructing the list of Aksikent’s rulers and analyzing their administrative powers. The article argues that digital bibliography is not merely a finding aid but an analytical tool that enables new insights into institutions, terminology, and political dynamics in pre-modern Central Asian statehood.
