Today the ceremony of circumcision (or “wedding” as it is called in people) in the majority of average Uzbek families starts with morning pilau (traditional meal made of rise, carrot, meat, etc). The eve before that morning, the men from among relatives, friends and neighbors come to cut yellow carrot for pilau. The guests arrive early in the morning, with the host greeting them at the house gates. After pilau the relatives of boy’s mother come with plenty of gifts for the boy. But the dearest and most expected moment for the boy is the adorned foal - a gift from uncle. The boy and his brothers are being dressed according to the occasion. He is being seated at the foal while the guests and especially grandmothers give him money, candies, gifts, etc. Then the real merriment starts, with musicians playing national melodies, people dancing, enjoying themselves. Soon the circumcision expert arrives. Boy’s mother can hardly restrain her feelings. Relatives give the boy money (the best anesthesia, they believe). The closest male relatives of the boy gather near the bed for a prayer. After the prayer, the core circumcision takes place, using special knife, and ashes for disinfection. The boy bravely endures the pain. The guests celebrate until the eve, then leaving the boy and his family alone after a hard day.
