A surviving Samanid monument

10th century CE · Bukhara

About this event

UNESCO highlights the tenth-century tomb of Ismail Samani among Bukhara’s monuments.

Keep the date’s precision

Bukhara is much older; the date belongs to the monument, not the city’s origin.

Century and half-century bounds are editorial filtering aids. They do not turn a broad source period into an exact date.
