thumb|270px|Zhulād of Gōzgān was an Iranian ruler of the region of Guzgan, and a vassal of the [[Yabghus of Tokharistan. Coinage date 688 CE.]] Guzgan (, also known as Gozgan, Guzganan or Quzghan) was a historical region and early medieval principality in what is now northern Afghanistan.
==Etymology== The area was known as "Guzgan" or in the plural form "Guzganan". Orientalist Vladimir Minorsky derived the name from a word meaning "walnut", a product for which the area is still known today. The 19th-century scholar Henry George Raverty suggested that the plural form emerged from the division of the country in two parts by the river Murghab.
