Why do historians hide the cities of Tartary? Why don't they try to look for them?

The idea that historians are "hiding" the cities of Tartary is more of a conspiracy theory than a widely accepted historical perspective. The concept of Tartary refers to a vast region in Asia that was historically used in European maps and writings to describe territories that were largely unknown or poorly understood at the time. This term has often been associated with a range of different cultural and ethnic groups, most notably the Mongols and other Central Asian peoples. Historians do study the regions that were once referred to as Tartary, but they approach these studies based on available archaeological evidence, historical documents, and cultural findings. The cities and societies that existed in these areas have often been incorporated into the histories of specific nations or ethnic groups, which might not align with the broader and more vague notion of "Tartary." Many of the places once grouped together under this label have been absorbed into modern nation-states or have undergone significant changes over the centuries. As such, the historical focus typically shifts to well-documented civilizations and cultures, rather than a vague and outdated term like Tartary. If there appears to be a lack of substantial investigation into "Tartarian" history, it is primarily due to the historical ambiguity of the term and the difficulty in pinpointing specific cities or regions that fit this classification in a meaningful way. Instead, the focus is on individual cultures and histories that have emerged in those regions over time.
