Who Were The Traders?

Recommended Posts

Who dominated the silk trade routes during Roman times? Was it the minority cultures or Jews and Christians, certian nationalities or tribes allowed, or what?

 

Was there a certain type of ship they used in water travel? Certain kinds of wagons for land transportation? What were the major logistical hubs, and how were they administered?

 

What goods went east, what went west in exchange, and was the silk road in roman days strictly east to west, or was it more a web, hitting different geographical areas?
