Re: Да не

>Просветите кто грамотный - Согдиана это Трансоксиана? Или только северная часть междуречья Аму- и Сыр-дарьи, как википедия утверждает?

Вот что даёт Британника:

Тransoxania also spelled Transoxiana, Arabic Ma Wara' An-nahr
(“That Which Lies Beyond the River”), historical region of Turkistan in Central Asia east of the Amu Darya (Oxus River) and west of the Syr Darya (Jaxartes River), roughly corresponding to present-day Uzbekistan and parts of Turkmenistan and Kazakstan. A great centre of Muslim civilization during the European Middle Ages, Transoxania was the centre of the Timurid empire in the 15th century, and its cities (e.g., Bukhara and Samarkand) were known worldwide. The region came under Russian occupation in the 19th century.

А вот чего пишут о Согдиане

ancient country of Central Asia centring on the fertile valley of the Zeravshan River, in modern Uzbekistan. Excavations have shown that Sogdiana was probably settled between 1000 and 500 BC and that it then passed under Achaemenian rule. It was later attacked by Alexander the Great and may have been included in the Bactrian Greek kingdom until the invasions of Saka and Yüeh-chih peoples in the 2nd century BC. Sogdiana remained a prosperous centre until the Mongol invasions. Under the Samanid dynasty (9th–10th century AD) it was an eastern focal point of Islamic civilization.
