Fushenjan (Persian: فوشنجان also Romanized as Fūshenjān),[1] also known as Pushtanghan (Persian: پشتنقان) or Pushenjan[2] (Persian: پوشنجان) in the historic sources of The Quarter of Nishapur (Persian: ربع نیشابور) in Khorasan, is a village in Fazl Rural District, in the Central District of Nishapur County, Razavi Khorasan Province, Iran. At the 2006 census, its population was 1,457, in 421 families.[3]
This village has been claimed to be the birthplace of Haji Bektash Veli by Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism of Iran[4] and is home to Baktash Archaeological Site of Nishapur[4] which was uncovered by an archeological group led by the archeological department of the University of Neyshabur in an archeological excavation project initiated in the year 2016.[2][5] This site is part of the Iran National Heritage list with the national registration number of 24383.[4] There is no historical source or record which implies that Bektash was really born in Fushenjan.[citation needed][disputed – discuss] The cited websites clearly show that the Iranian government invented[citation needed][disputed – discuss] the place for tourist attraction and missionary activity.
