Abstract

This article examines the historiography of Fergana during the period of Amir Temur and the Timurid dynasty, focusing on contemporary research trends and academic interpretations. The study explores how Fergana’s political, economic, cultural, and scientific environments were shaped under Timurid governance. By analyzing the works of leading historians, manuscripts, and archaeological studies, the article reveals the significance of Fergana as a strategic region in the state-building process of Amir Temur and the intellectual flourishing of the Timurid Renaissance. The paper further discusses modern scholarly contributions to the study of this period and evaluates methodological developments in regional historiography.
