HOW TO FIND OUT ABOUT TRADE ,TRADERS ?, • Traders may have carried them from the places where things were, made, to sell them at other places., • South India (afa ne a ae) was famous for gold, spices, especially, pepper, and precious stones., • Pepper was particularly valued in the Roman Empire, so much so, that it was known as black gold. So, traders carried many of these, goods to Rome in ships, across the sea, and by land in caravans., There must have been quite a lot of trade as many Roman gold coins, have been found in south India.
