Abstract

Abstract: Peach (Amygdalus persica) is one of the oldest and most important fruits in China, and it was transmitted to ancient Persia through the Silk Road. The cultivation of peach in ancient Turpan, which was the important crossroads in the Silk Road, was still controversial. The "桃" appearing in the Turpan Documents aroused controversies which are divided into two views, "no peach" and "with peach". Based on unearthed documents and plant remains discovered in the Murtukesayi garrison in Turpan, it was suggested that peach cultivation had already existed in Turpan no later than the Xizhou Period in the Tang Dynasty.

Key words: peach, grape, Gaochang, unearthed documents, Murtukesayi garrison
