According to one of them, the fortress was built by Afrosiab to protect himself from Rustam (the famous heroes of Firdowsi's "Shahname"). Another legend says that the righteous Caliph Ali came to these places on his horse Dul-dul to preach Islam and stopped at a mountain, which today is called Poi-Dul-dul (west of Hissar). Under the guise of a canate walker, he made his way from the mountain to fortress, but here he was recognized and captured.
