Central Asia is commonly imagined as the marginal land on the
periphery of Chinese and Middle Eastern civilisations. At best, it
is understood as a series of disconnected areas that served as
stop-overs along the Silk Road. However, in the mediaeval period,
this region rose to prominence and importance as one of the centres
of Persian-lslamic culture, from the Seljuks to the Mongols and
Timur. Khodadad Rezakhani tells the back story of this rise to
prominence, the story of the famed Kushans and mysterious 'Asian
Huns) and their role in shaping both the Sasanian Empire and the
rest of the Middle East.
