File:Tahirid Khurasan ca 836 AD.svg
Summary
Map of Khurasan and other provinces governed by the Tahirids, circa 836 AD, based on information given by the geographer Ibn Khurradadhbih d. ca. 911 AD. He provides a list, pages 34-39, of the revenues of each province and district under the control of the Tahirids. Cities and towns in the provinces are derived from his itineraries, pp. 22-54. The works of Le Strange and Barthold were used to determine the locations of several of the lesser-known districts, especially those in Tukharistan.
