Notes:
a
Excluded are data on Pamiris, included in Materialy Vserossiiskikh perepisei.
b
According to Statisticheskii ezhegodnik. Magidovich provides general numbers,
including on the urban population: Uzbeks and Sarts: 1,440,168; Kara-Kyrgyz: 362,851;
Kipchaks and Kara-Kalpaks; Tajiks: 187,244; Persians: 2,363. Magidovich also presents
rounded figures in the text on each nationality, which in the case of the Tajiks turn out to be
significantly different: 167,800; Magidovich included other groups, such as Kashgaris, Turks,
Kurama, Arabs, Hodjas, and Juzes in the column for “Uzbeks and Sarts” (I.P. Magidovich,
Naselenie TSSR v 1920 g.
Moscow, 1926).
c
Based on data in Materialy Vserossiiskih perepisei. Again, Magidovich included other
groups in the “Uzbeks and Sarts” column; in the same place he presents separate numbers
on Sarts, Uzbeks, and other small groups, while in the text number giving the number of
Sarts as 116,932, excluding here Sarts of the Osh region. The Materialy gives the number
of Turks as “not less than 13,000,” as Magidovich did not incorporate into the list the Osh
region Turks, who, nevertheless appear in his tables, although without any mention of
their precise numbers. Magidovich presents an erroneous number for the Kipchaks in the
Namangan county: 11,415 instead of the correct figure of 11,475 (Materialy Vserossiikikh
perepisei
, p. 42). The Materialy gives the number of Kashgaris as not less than 37,500, but
Magidovich did not include the Osh region Kashgaris in the list, although they appear in
his tables, albeit without mention of their precise numbers.
d
According to data from Spisok narodnostei Turkistanskogo kraiia (taken from Materialy
Vserossiiskikh perepesei
). Although Magidovich included other groups (Kashgaris, Turks,
Kurama, Arabs, Hodjas, Juzes in the “Uzbeks and Sarts” column), Zarubin only includes
Turks and Kashgaris.
e
According to data from Spisok narodnostei Turkistanskogo kraiia (based on Zarubin’s
own calculations). Zarubin calls Turks “Turkoman.” According to Zarubin, the figures
indicating the numbers of Kipchaks and Kara-Kalpaks also include totals for the “Tashkent
region”; Zarubin writes that Gypsies numbered “more than 1,000.”
