=== Background information ===
ShiKahr, as it was spelled in the script for "Yesteryear" as well as in the script for "Two Days and Two Nights" and in that actual episode, has also been spelled "Shi'Kahr", "ShirKahr", "Shirkar", "Shi-Kar", and "Shi Khar".
ShiKahr was also added in the background in the remastered version of .
While signage mentioning ShiKahr was only legible in HD, the script and production reports also established the United Earth Embassy was in ShiKahr. According to senior illustrator John Eaves, both the embassy and the Vulcan High Command building were supposed to be in the same city as each other. Indeed, although the script of cited the location of the Vulcan High Command building merely as an unnamed "large Vulcan metropolis," the script of identified that place – described on-screen as the capital city of Vulcan – as Shi'Kahr.
A deleted scene from would have shown the birth of Spock in Shi'Kahr. Assuming that home was the same as their home in another scripted scene later, that scene would imply ShirKahr to be relatively close to Vulcana Regar, a distance that could be crossed quickly by hoverspeeder.
According to StarTrek.com, ShiKahr was an ancient city, founded in "pre-Surak times." This city was "surrounded by irrigated and cultivated land, which acted as a buffer from the arid conditions that prevail across much of Vulcan." 
From the , "In the animated episode "Yesteryear", ShirKahr was seen to be Spock's home town. We saw ShirKahr in a new visual effects shot in the remastered version of "Amok Time" (TOS), in which its appearance was based on the animated episode. The location of the Vulcan High Command is from a scene description in the script for "The Forge". In "Kir'Shara", T'Pol described the city as the "capital". We interpret it as meaning that it is the capital of the planetary government, since the Vulcan High Command was located there at the time. Shakier has also been spelled ShirKahr and Shi'Kahr. We assume that all are equally valid."
