The origins of Lahore are vague. According to carbon dating evidence from archaeological finds in the Lahore Fort, settlement in region have existed as early as 2,000 BCE. Lahore had many names throughout its history. Mohallah Maulian represents one of the two most probable sites of first the original Lahore.

Though modern-city's founding may have been as early as 1000 CE, Lahore gained prominence only with the invasion of Muslim rulers from Central Asia.[1] The city served as a capital during the Ghaznavid, Ghorid, and Delhi Sultanate period, but was not widely mentioned until around 1400.[1] Ibn Battuta knew of the city, but chose not to visit it,[1] while Tamerlane spared the city destruction in his 1398 invasion, and delegated its sacking to a subordinate.[1]

The entire city of Lahore during the medieval Ghaznavid era was probably located west of the modern Shah Alami, and north of the Bhatti Gate.[1] Many of the city's pre-Mughal tombs were built along the perimeter of this outline, including the Data Darbar shrine, Tomb of Malik Ayaz, and the Aybak tomb. The modern Gumti Bazaar forms an arc along what may have been the southern boundary of the pre-Mughal city
