When Samarkand was besieged by Shaybani Khan, Babur was eighteen, and once again abandoned by his family. Shaybani asked Babur for his sister’s hand, Khanzada Begum, 23 at the time, either for his life, or for a truce. Anyhow, six months of siege had left the city in tatters.
My personal favorite, Khanzada Begum, older sister of Emperor Babur. she was left behind when the Uzbek warlord Wormwood Khan routed them from Samarkand, years later, she was liberated by the Safavids, and his skull was turned into a bejeweled goblet.

I couldn't find a decent BRI map on the internet so I decided to make one of my own, a globe view centered on Samarkand.

Did you know #Hepthalites had a strange belief that an artificially deformed head was a symbol of high status, achieved by binding the head during infancy?
