Between the Maritime Silkroad crossing the Bay of Bengal towards China and Japan, and the landroute crossing Central Asia towards Xinjiang and eventually Chang\u2019an, large parts of Asia are tied into a large international Trade system. But what about the landlocked areas of Southeast Asia and Himalayas? This course will look at the Tea-Horse Road, famous for bringing Chinese Tea in exchange for Indian Horses in the 18\/19th century, but very much older and linking the countries in the Western Himalayas with South East Asia.<\/p>\n
