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.
