View this short video from the Metropolitan Museum of Art that reflects our class discussion on the impact of trade routes within and around the Eurasian continent. This would make a great complement to our Empires of India and China course topic.
What I found so agreeable about this video is that it uses Buddhism as a case study, just like our class did during our discussions. Buddhism is a great vehicle to witness the influence of other cultures involved in commercial activities (Cultural Diffusion).
