- enkid 5y agoThe above comment is explicitly talking about spread of religion, not trade networks.
- ummonk 5y agoAre you claiming that there was zero cultural transfer along with the material trade happening in the Bronze age?
- enkid 5y agoNo, I'm saying one comment is saying contact can be seen by spreading of religion, and therefore Chinese and Indian contact were later than European spread. So, looking at the criteria of the above comments, taking them post at their own standards, which is spread of religion, Europe as an entity did not have "contact" in its entirety until a thousand years after China and India.
