Trade on the Ancient Silk Route (2nd century BCE-14th century CE)
Description
We traverse the winding paths of the Silk Route, a mixture woven through the epochs, unfurling from the 2nd century BCE to the 14th century CE. Here, the murmur of camel caravans carries not just silk but a symphony of ideas, from the spiritual whispers of Buddhism to the strategic whispers of empires. As we tread softly along these ancient routes, each step is a thread connecting distant lands, each breath a story of shared humanity draped in the delicate embrace of traded silk. In the quietude of night, let us explore how a simple thread pulled civilizations together, inviting prosperity and exchange under starlit skies. This episode is hosted by Jessica Morgan.
