Glass along the Silk Road from 200 BC to AD 1000
International conference within the scope of the Sino-German Project on Cultural Heritage Preservation of the RGZM and the Shaanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology, December 11th-12th 2008
by B. Zorn and A. Hilgner
Since Antiquity, the ‘Silk Road’ was a network for commercial and cultural exchange, criss-crossing the Asian continent, connecting eastern and south-eastern Asia to the Mediterranean world via maritime and overland routes. Goods travelled in both directions; glass is an excellent example for a trade-good that arrived in the East from the West.
The current state of research on glass along the Silk Road was the subject of an international conference within the scope of the “Sino-German Project on Cultural Heritage Preservation” of the RGZM and the Shaanxi Provincal Institute of Archaeology, hosted in December 2008 in Mainz.
