History

From 660 to 760, Fuman functioned as the seat of the Zoroastrian[6] Dabuyid rulers.Шаблон:Sfn During the period of the Mongol occupation of Iran, Fuman and Lahijan were among the main towns of Gilan.Шаблон:Sfn The local ruler of Fuman at that time, who was reportedly the "only Shafi'ite among the rulers of Gilan", was able to generate a large amount of revenue through lucrative silk trade.Шаблон:Sfn According to Hamdallah Mustawfi (died 1349), Fuman was a large city, and the center of a wealthy region which produced large quantities of "wheat, rice and silk".Шаблон:Sfn

Fuman continued to function as the capital of the Bia-pas region (western Gilan) until 1572–1573, when ruler Jamshid Soltan made Rasht the capital.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn From the reign of King (Shah) Sultan Husayn (Шаблон:Reign1694–1722) to Fath-Ali Shah Qajar (Шаблон:Reign1797–1834), the local rulers of Fuman were involved in a fierce rivalry with the local rulers of neighboring Shaft.Шаблон:Sfn John Elton, who had been prominent under Nader Shah (Шаблон:Reign1736–1747), was killed in 1751 on the order of one of these rulers, Agha Jamal Fumani.Шаблон:Sfn In 1805, during the reign of Fath-Ali Shah Qajar, Fuman was reportedly "still a small, open town with about a thousand houses and a very lively market".Шаблон:Sfn However, the situation changed when Hajji Mohammad Khan abandoned Fuman for Rasht during the early reign of Naser al-Din Shah Qajar (Шаблон:Reign1848–1896). In the subsequent period, Fuman "fell into decay".Шаблон:Sfn According to Grigorii Melgunov, who visited Fuman in 1860, it was little more than a village consisting of just 140 houses surrounding the palace of the local ruler.Шаблон:Sfn Fuman has regained importance since the mid-20th century.Шаблон:Sfn
