<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1444915, member: 26302&quot;]The silk road is actually my specialty right now sir. The main silk road was the trade between China and Rome/Byzantium. There were two, the earlier one was the southern silk road going through Bactria and Parthia and on to Rome. Later, after the coming of the Hepthalites and Yueh Chi, there was instead a northern one, going through the Tarim basin, through Sogdia, and then through Sassanid territory. For the land route, the coins would be either Chinese-bactiran-parthian-Roman, or Chinese-Sogdian-Sassanid-Byzantine as a beginning. </p><p><br /></p><p>I could talk about this for hours, so will stop now to stop from boring everyone else. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
