The Silk Road was an overland route that linked China to the Mediterranean world via Mesopotamia, Iran, and Central Asia. There were two periods of heavy use of the Silk Road: (1) 150 b.c.e.?907 c.e. and (2) the thirteenth through seventeenth centuries c.e. 2?? seq NL_a \r 0 \h . The origins of the Silk Road trade may be located in the occasional trading of Central Asian nomads.
