The Mongol Empire Episode 22, Samarkand: Timur's Cultural Capital Episode 22, Samarkand: Timur's Cultural Capital.
Streaming video - 2020
Take a break from conquests to explore Timur's fabled capital, Samarkand, located in present-day Uzbekistan. Already rich in history, the city was reborn under Timur, financed by booty and built by artisans captured during his campaigns. Investigate Timur's mausoleum and the effort of Soviet-era archaeologists to reconstruct his appearance, which some argue provoked an ancient curse.
