| {{POTD caption}} | |caption= | Bukharan Jews are a Mizrahi Jewish community originating in Central Asia, predominantly in what is now Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Afghanistan. They traditionally spoke Bukharian, a Judeo-Persian language closely related to Tajik. Jewish communities existed in Central Asia from at least the early medieval period, and Bukharan Jews later developed a distinct identity from Iranian Jewry. From the 1870s they began migrating to Jerusalem, where they established the Bukharan Quarter. Since the late Soviet period, most have emigrated to Israel, the United States and elsewhere, although small numbers remain in Central Asia. This photograph shows a group of Bukharan Jewish children and their teacher in Samarkand, present-day Uzbekistan, around 1910. It was produced by photographer Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky as part of his work to document the Russian Empire from 1909 to 1915. | A long text, describing the picture.
