The political and dynastic history of the pre-Islamic period of Chach - one of the most important historical and cultural regions of Transoxiana, within the common borders corresponding to the modern Tashkent region of Uzbekistan, remains little known due to the extremely scarce information of written sources. This is especially true of the period from the 1st to the 5th century AD, about which there are small reports of Chinese written sources. They concern, in particular, one of the five Kangyu possessions of Yuni, localized on the site of the Chach region. These reports were repeatedly used by many scientists who, comparing them with geographical and archaeological data, tried to determine the location of Yuni or the capital of Kangyu - Bitian City. Archaeological data, giving some ideas about the material and artistic culture of this period, due to their specifics, cannot answer questions of political and dynastic history. In addition, the urban culture of Chach of the 4th century, with the exception of the excavations of Shashtep and stratigraphic studies at the Kanka settlement, has not been studied at all. Some information about this period of Chacha history is contained in the famous inscription of Shapur I on the Kaaba Zoroaster of 262 AD e. And in the Chinese chronicle of Beishi, but they are also limited. To expand our ideas about the history of Chach of this period allow numismatic data - coins of this possession, minted in the III - V centuries. AD
