Presumably in the 5th to the 16th centuries on the site of Ufa there was a medieval city.

French orientalist Henri Cordier associates the position of Pascherti with the current location of Ufa.

Ibn Khaldun among the largest cities of the Golden Horde called the town Bashkort.

Russian historian of the XVIII century Peter Rychkov wrote that on the territory of Ufa before the arrival of the Russians there was a great city.
