History
Main: Samandar and Shamkhalate of Tarki.

According to some scholars, Tarki sits on the site of Samandar, the capital of Khazaria until the early 8th century[11][12]. In 1396, Timur passed through Tarki during the Tokhtamysh–Timur war. In the middle ages the Shamkhalate state is formed, lately becoming Shamkhalate of Tarki. Tarki had been the capital of the Kumyk state at least from the 16th century[13]. This state was not abolished until 1867.

Tarki is mentioned by Armenian chronicles of the 7-8th century[14][15] Giovanni Carpini in 13th century, on the Catalan Atlas of 1375, by Timurid historians

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 and original Kumyk name Andzhi-kala, now known as Makhachkala.

Deportation
Tarki in 1925

By the decree of Stalin's government on the 12 of April 1944 Kumyk population of historical Kumyk capital Tarki and adjacent villages was deported to the lands of entirely deported to the Middle Asia Chechens (Karachays, Balkars and Crimean Tatars also were deported). The reason was stated as "freeing the area for the agricultural needs" of the resettling there mountaineer peoples. The deportation, despite the Russian laws is still not acknowledged by the Russian government. As a result of this event, local population lost for years their ancient capital of Tarki, which led to the permanent destruction of the majority of the cultural inheritance.[16]

Urban-type settlement status was granted to Tarki in 1958.

Within the framework of administrative divisions, the urban-type settlement of Tarki is in jurisdiction of Sovetsky City District of the City of Makhachkala.[1] Within the framework of municipal divisions, Tarki is a part of Makhachkala Urban Okrug.[3]
