History
Sampul tapestry, warrior
Lop carpets discovered in Sampul.

Local inhabitants at Sampul cemetery around 14 km (8.7 mi)[6] where art such as the Sampul tapestry has been found,[7] buried their dead from roughly 217 BCE to 283 CE.[8] The analysis of mtDNA haplogroup distribution showed that the Sampula inhabitants had a large mixture of East Asian, Persian and European characteristics.[6][9] According to Chengzhi et al. (2007), analysis of maternal mitochondrial DNA of the human remains has revealed genetic affinities at the maternal side to Ossetians and Iranians, an Eastern-Mediterranean paternal lineage.[6][10][note 1]

The Sampul tapestry was discovered in Sampul in the mid-1980s.

On October 21, 2014, Sampul township (山普鲁乡) disestablished and Sampul town (山普鲁镇) was created.[2][17]

In 2016-17, five villages were added to Sampul.[18]

On the afternoon of April 7, 2017, the XUAR Judiciary Office's de-extremization (去极端化) propaganda team began three days of de-extremization lectures in the county including visits in Sampul.[19]

On December 13, 2019, the body of a 5 year old Uyghur boy was found in snow in a stream in Sampul, and viral video of the discovery led to international attention.[20][21]

Notes
  1. From historical accounts it is known that Alexander the Great, who married a Sogdian woman from Bactria named Roxana,[11][12][13] encouraged his soldiers and generals to marry local women; consequentially the later kings of the Seleucid Empire and Greco-Bactrian Kingdom had a mixed Persian-Greek ethnic background.[14][15][16]
    Lucas Christopoulos writes : "The kings (or soldiers) of the Sampul cemetery came from various origins, composing as they did a homogenous army made of Hellenized Persians, western Scythians, or Sacae Iranians from their mother's side, just as were most of the second generation of Greeks colonists living in the Seleucid Empire. Most of the soldiers of Alexander the Great who stayed in Persia, India and central Asia had married local women, thus their leading generals were mostly Greeks from their father's side or had Greco-Macedonian grandfathers. Antiochos had a Persian mother, and all the later Indo-Greeks or Greco-Bactrians were revered in the population as locals, as they used both Greek and Bactrian scripts on their coins and worshipped the local gods. The DNA testing of the Sampul cemetery shows that the occupants had maternal origins in the eastern part of the Mediterranean".[10]
