Tarki (Russian: Тарки́), formerly also spelled Terki and Terkee[9] and also known as Tarku[10] (Kumyk: Таргъу, Targhu), is an urban locality (an urban-type settlement) under the administrative jurisdiction of Sovetsky City District of the City of Makhachkala in the Republic of Dagestan, Russia, located on the Tarkitau Mountain. As of the 2010 Census, its population was 15,356.[3]

History

According to oral tradition, Tarki sits on the site of Samandar, the capital of Khazaria until the early 8th century. In 1396, Timur passed through Tarki during the Tokhtamysh–Timur war. In the 1642, the shamkhal Surkhay removed his capital from Gazi-Kumukh to Tarki, ending the Gazikumukh Shamkhalate and beginning the Shamkhalate of Tarki. This state was not abolished until 1867.

The shamkhals submitted to Russian authority more than once, first in the early 17th century. In 1668, the town was sacked by cossacks under Stepan Razin. The shamkhals were again obliged to submit to Russian suzerainty during Peter the Great's 1722 Persian Expedition and during Catherine the Great's 1796 Persian Expedition.

Tarki finally passed to Russia under the terms of the Treaty of Gulistan (1813). Eight years later, the Russians built Burnaya Fortress there, which was succeeded by Fort-Petrovsk, now known as Makhachkala.
