Historical background

Sogdiana, Sogdiane in Greek, is the name of a region, not of a town: the land between the Oxus and the Jaxartes centred on Maracanda, today's Samarkand. Alexander the Great conquered it in 329–327 BC against stubborn resistance and married the Sogdian Roxana there. Sogdian merchants later became the leading traders of the Silk Road.
