Abstract
At Paikend (modern Uzbekistan) we have investigated most of the residential quarter of the 7 th-8 th cc. The quarter was divided into two equal parts by a main wall. The northern part of the large corner house, as well as the neighboring house, revealed evidence of a strong fire, whereas the other houses in the quarter showed none. Analysis of the pottery from the burnt layers and from the rest of the house allowed concluding that the location actually comprised two complexes dating to different periods. The complex that shows traces of fire dates to the middle third quarter of the 8 th c., whereas the other one belongs to the middle of the 7 th beginning of the 8 th cc. The dates are confirmed by the distribution of coins in the layers. Contrary to previous assumptions, the fire cannot be interpreted as the one that accompanied the seizure of Paikend by the Arabs in 706, since it was of a local nature.
