The first reliable evidence of the presence of Jews in the region dates back to the 4th century AD. and by the XII century. -the first evidence of a large Jewish community (in the city of Samarkand. By the time of the annexation of Central Asia to Russia (1865-1873), Bukharian Jews were an incomplete minority, and an insignificant part of them on the territory of the Bukhara Emirate was (at times forcibly) converted to Islam (the so-called «chala»). Jews compactly lived in Bukhara, Kattakurgan, Samarkand, Tashkent, Karshi, Shakhrisabz, Kokand, Margelan and other cities.
