Abstract: In the 19th century, Central Asian indigenous medicine, as a branch of Greco-Islamic medicine, integrated diverse civilizations such as ancient Greek, Persian, and Indian traditions. Through Islamization and synthesis, the medicine was characterized with inheritance through familial transmission and classical textual study by incorporating multilingual literature and natural medicinal practices. The evolutionary trajectory underscores how socio-cultural forces shape medical traditions, offering fresh perspectives and case studies for contemporary socio-cultural research. This contributes to a deeper understanding of the holistic and complex nature of societal cultures.
Key words: the 19th century, Central Asia, medicine, social-cultural
