In the lower reaches of the Amu Darya, artificial irrigation was created on the basis of flood water management of the river. The first channels were wide and shallow. Saka was used for flood water management. Saka was invented by tazabagyabinces. The channels which derived from the Akchadarya Delta were strongly branched, and the main channels were derived from the Sarikamysh Delta. The first channels belong to the Amirabad culture. They developed in the archaic and ancient period. The first century BC.ad and IV century ad channels were branched as much as possible.
