Cities in the ancient Middle East appear to have contained commercial districts. Later, in the historic <a href="/wiki/Islamic_world" class="mw-redirect" title="Islamic world">Islamic world</a>, bazaars typically shared in common certain institutions, such as the position of the <a href="/wiki/Muhtasib" title="Muhtasib"><span title="Arabic-language romanization"><i lang="ar-Latn">muḥtasib</i></span></a>, and certain architectural forms, such as roofed streets and courtyard buildings known in English as <a href="/wiki/Caravanserai" title="Caravanserai">caravanserais</a>. The exact details of their evolution and organization varied from region to region. </p><p>In the 18th and 19th centuries, Western interest in <a href="/wiki/Oriental" class="mw-redirect" title="Oriental">oriental</a> culture led to the publication of many books about daily life in Middle Eastern countries. Souks, bazaars and the trappings of trade feature prominently in paintings and engravings, works of fiction and travel writing. </p><p>Shopping at a bazaar or market-place remains a central feature of daily life in many Middle-Eastern and South Asian cities and towns and the bazaar remains the beating heart of <a href="/wiki/Western_Asia" class="mw-redirect" title="Western Asia">West Asian</a> and <a href="/wiki/South_Asia" title="South Asia">South Asian</a> life; in the Middle East, souks tend to be found in a city's old quarter.

The oldest souks were set up annually, and were typically general festivals held outside cities. For example, Souk Ukadh was held yearly in pre-Islamic times in an area between <a href="/wiki/Mecca" title="Mecca">Mecca</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ta%E2%80%99if" class="mw-redirect" title="Ta’if">Ta’if</a> during the sacred month of <a href="/wiki/Dhu_al-Qi%27dah" class="mw-redirect" title="Dhu al-Qi&#39;dah">Dhu al-Qi'dah</a>.
