The Kupkari<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Catch the goat! This is the meaning of the Uzbek word Kupkari <\/strong>and of the corresponding parsi word Buzkashi<\/strong>. It is an ancient equestrian sport, very popular in Uzbekistan and in many countries of Central Asia.
In a large field many dozen or, often, hundreds of riders compete for the carcass of a lamb or a goat. The winner is the one who manages to drop the carcass in a pre-assigned area. The player who succeeds is rewarded, then the animal's body is returned to the center of the field and they start again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
