Note: silk road or silk route
Silk Road, also called Silk Route,
ancient trade route, linking China with the West, that carried goods and ideas
between the two great civilizations of Rome and China. Silk went westward, and
wools, gold, and silver went east. China also received Nestorian Christianity
and Buddhism (from India) via the Silk Road.
Originating at Xi’an (Sian), the
4,000-mile (6,400-km) road, actually a caravan tract, followed the Great Wall
of China to the northwest, bypassed the Takla Makan Desert, climbed the Pamirs
(mountains), crossed Afghanistan, and went on to the Levant; from there the
merchandise was shipped across the Mediterranean Sea. Few persons traveled the
entire route, and goods were handled in a staggered progression by middlemen.
With the gradual loss of Roman
territory in Asia and the rise of Arabian power in the Levant, the Silk Road
became increasingly unsafe and untraveled. In the 13th and 14th centuries the
route was revived under the Mongols, and at that time the Venetian Marco Polo
used it to travel to Cathay (China). It is now widely thought that the route was
one of the main ways that plague bacteria responsible for the Black Death
pandemic in Europe in the mid-14th century moved westward from Asia.
Part of the Silk Road still exists,
in the form of a paved highway connecting Pakistan and the Uygur Autonomous Region
of Xinjiang, China. The old road has been the impetus behind a United Nations
plan for a trans-Asian highway, and a railway counterpart of the road has been
proposed by the UN Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific
(UNESCAP). The road inspired cellist Yo-Yo Ma to found the Silk Road Project in
1999, which explored cultural traditions along its route and beyond as a means
for connecting arts worldwide across cultures.
