Excerpt: ...a spot marked on Wyld's map of Khiva, considerably to our rear, while the country was a succession of hill and dale, but much more undulating toward my bridle-hand than in the direction of the setting sun. Our course, as we neared a spot known by the Kirghiz as Tan Sooloo, was due south. From this place to Tooz, our next halting-place, the distance was sixty versts. On either side of the track there were deep hollows and ravines innumerable, while saksaool and brush-wood became each moment more scarce. Apparently all this country had been at some remote period buried beneath the sea. Frequently we came across shells and other marine Crustacea scattered in profusion along our path, while at Tooz we passed a small salt lake which lay about a hundred yards to the east of the track, and was frozen as hard as adamant. Tooz signifies "salt" in the Tartar language, and the sand all about the lake is saturated with salt. Indeed, the traveler does not require any stronger testimony to this fact than the peculiar taste of his tea, for, however carefully the snow is chosen, it is sure to become mixed with a little sand; and the more you drink, the thirstier you become. According to the guide, there were two much larger sheets of salt-water to the west, dividing the ground between ourselves and the Sea of Aral. CHAPTER XXVI.
