Description

This scholarly collection by Professor Ptak examines Chinese maritime trade during the medieval and early modern periods, offering detailed analysis of commercial networks spanning from Timor and the Sulu Islands to southern India and the Indian Ocean islands. The work is divided into two complementary sections: the first investigates direct contacts between China and specific regions, drawing on Chinese geographical accounts and comparing them with contemporary Arabic and Western colonial sources to provide a comprehensive view of trade routes and regional interactions. The second section focuses on commodity-specific trade patterns, examining high-value goods including sandalwood, coral, horses, tortoise-shell, ebony and cloves that formed the backbone of seaborne commerce. This collection represents an essential resource for understanding the complexity and scope of pre-modern Asian trade networks and China's dominant role in regional commerce.
