Jilukhan is an area that was placed in front of some buildings and its use has been very widespread from the Safavid era to the contemporary period. Despite this, the formation and evolution of the Jilukhan model cannot be attributed only to this period. The evidence left from the Timurid era shows the presence of this pattern in the architecture of this period. Not only has this model been used in this period in the design of the entrance area of the building, but it has also been used in the arrangement of buildings in several complexes such as Guri-mir, Sultan Soadat, and Anu. It has continued to follow the model of Jilukhan in the construction of architectural complexes, especially in the regions Transoxiana and Great Khorasan, after the Timurid period and in the Shaybanid and Ashtarkhanid eras, which shows the importance of this model in the design of architectural complexes in this geographical region and this time. This research aims to study the roots of the formation of this form of construction, which has had an effective presence in Iranian architecture, by studying the early examples and also two representative examples belonging to the Timurid era (Sultan Soadat and Anu Complexes) and one example belonging to the Shaybanid period (Charbakr complex) as well as other recent samples in this geographical area. The main questions that this research seeks to answer are, what were the origins of the formation of the Jilukhan-shaped complexes in Transoxiana and Great Khorasan during the Timurid, Shaybanid, and Ashtarkhanid periods? And, in how many categories can these complexes be classified in terms of the position of the buildings relative to each other, based on the evolution of the Jilukhan-shaped complexes in the three eras of the Timurid and Shaybanid and Ashtarkhanid? This research has been carried out with an analytical-historical approach and its results show that it is possible to divide the Jilukhan-shaped complexes into two main categories in the Qash style (in front of each other) and in the Joft style (Pair with each other) in terms of the way the building is placed. It is possible to attribute the roots of Qash-style Jilukhans to the long history of the construction of two buildings that face each other in the Transoxiana region, and it is also possible to know the origin of Joft-style Jilukhans in the retreat of the building from the row of other buildings from the side of the passages to strengthen the inviting state.
