Balhara according to Acad. Suren T. Eremian's reconstruction of the original map of Central Asia from the Armenian geographical atlas 'Ashharatsuyts'

Kingdom of Balhara was an Iranian kingdom and the subject of a fringe theory on the originating homeland of the Bulgar people by some Bulgarian historians (for example: Georgi Bakalov, Petar Dobrev, Ian Mladjov) to have been the earliest known state[1][unreliable source?][2][unreliable source?] of the ancient Bulgars, situated in the upper course of Oxus River (present Amu Darya), and the foothills and valleys of Hindu Kush and Pamir Mountains (ancient Mount Imeon).[3][unreliable source?] Peter Dobrev places the date of the kingdom around the 12th century BC.[4][page needed]
