ANSA) - Ancona, July 24 - The tomb of a woman who died around 2,600 years ago on the eastern Italian coast is helping archaeologists piece together the vast trade network that once linked this area with the Middle East, North Africa and Greece.

Experts working on a tomb near the port of Ancona say the site contains over 650 artefacts from the 7th century BC, including numerous items made in other parts of the world.


Hopefully we can get a glimpse of the 650+ items to see what is described in the article.

Hi there hans,

I read it in an article but I couldnt tell you where, but it was in the last couple of years, but I'm thinkin it was in a Scientific american article comparing/contrasting Imperial Rome with Han dynasty China, a very fascinating piece. It was in this article that they had the picture of the Roman tapestry made into pants.
You know the roman emporers wore the finest silk, and the finest silk comes from? China of course.
So if youve just sold a couple of years worth of production, you'll likley see to the delivery in person to assure the honesty of the deal.

Roman stuff turns up in india, afganistan, pakistan, reportedly in thailand.

It is amazing how much people got around in ancient times.
