[quote=GUEST44103,254927]O Dream, I have checked thru my records, The year was 12 AD on the equivalent of present day 12th Nov - Gregorian calendar ;) I have no records of when the Silk Route actually started but it was the Han Dynasty's defeat of the XiongNu about 2000 yrs ago, that left the region open for human-traffic to pass through peacefully thereafter. So in my opinion, the author of this thread is correct that a war led to the Silk Route. Yes, women in those days were commonly used as a tool for political negotiation. It was quite common throughout the rest of the world - incl Europe. It was the rule of those days. See, how powerful and useful women were ;).[/quote]
