The history of Samarkand was developed throughout many components and, certainly, the fundamental influence of Arabic culture, from which the deep knowledge of ancient tradition, expecially geography, mathematic, astronomy and Sciences in general, took on special significance.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
