Historical background
The Syr Darya, the Jaxartes of antiquity, flows from the Tian Shan through the Fergana valley to the Aral Sea. On its banks Alexander the Great founded Alexandria Eschate, "Alexandria the Farthest", near today's Khujand in 329 BC, the northern limit of his empire. Beyond the river began the land of the Scythian and Saka steppe nomads.
