330 .. $a "'Worlds Apart Trading Together' sets out to replace the outdated notion of 'Indo-Roman
trade' with a more informed perspective integrating the new findings of the last 30
years. In order to accomplish this, a perspective focusing on concrete demand from
the ground up is adopted, also shedding light on the role of the market in long-distance
exchange. Accordingly, the analysis conducted demonstrates that an economically highly
substantial trade took place between the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean in the
1st-6th cen. CE, altering patterns of consumption and modes of production in both
India, South Arabia and the Roman Empire. Significantly, it can be documented that
this trade was organised at the centres of demand and supply, in Rome and India, respectively,
by comparable urban associations, the transport in-between being handled by equally
well-organised private networks and diasporas of seagoing merchants. Consequently,
this study concludes that the institution of the market in Antiquity was able to facilitate
trade over very long distances, acting on a scale which had a characteristic impact
on the economies of the societies involved, their economic structures converging by
adapting to trade and the market."--Cover page 4
