Abstract

This article explores the origins, political status, and economic life of the Vardanze (Vardona) settlement, one of the oldest and strategically most important cities in the Bukhara oasis. The article provides detailed information on the fierce struggles between Vardonkhudot and Qutayba ibn Muslim during the Arab conquest, as well as the development of ancient farming culture and handicrafts in the region. Abu Bakr Narshakhi's "History of Bukhara" is analyzed as the primary source.
