Olot, written Алат in Russian, is a city in Bukhara Region of Uzbekistan, and the seat of Olot District. Its recorded population was 8,857 in 1989 and 13,200 in 2016, growth of about 49 percent over 27 years. It received town status in 1982. The name comes from the Turkic tribe Alat or Ala-at, known in Arabic and Persian as Khalaj, with a meaning of piebald horse, and the Alats played a prominent role in the history of southern Uzbekistan, Khorasan, Persia and Afghanistan during the Middle Ages. The Bukhara Region is one of the regions into which Uzbekistan is divided. Uzbekistan is a doubly landlocked country in Central Asia, so Olot has no coast.
