Abstract: One factor that has influenced human ideology to date is literature. We can observe this both in the early Middle Ages and in the advanced Middle Ages. They also reflected the development of imperial knowledge in the early Middle Ages in the literature. Literature is one of the major factors in the spiritual development of humankind, the rise of consciousness. The discovery of the first samples and fragments of literature in Sughd in the early Middle Ages confirms that man has always sought spiritual nourishment throughout his life. Sogdian literature is literature written in the lost Sogdian language. We can divide the surviving Sogdian texts into four groups: Buddhist texts, monastic, Christian (Nestorian), and secular (legal and business records, letters). Several passages show they relate it to Zoroastrianism. The first three series are, in fact, translations.
Key words: Sogdian text, Turkic-Sogdian, thousand Buddhist cave, Chan-Buddhism, monastic Sogdian text, Sughdi Zoroastrian texts, Sogdian Buddhist texts.
