Chinese Pottery Trade From the Han to Ming Dynasty
Sino-Western maritime trade has a long history since the southeast coast of China opened its overseas routes at a very early time. According to Hanshu , at least in the Western Han dynasty, envoys have sailed from the northern gulf of Xuwen , Hepu , China, to Sri Lanka and the surrounding area to undertake some simple tribute and trade activities .1 Due to the development of shipbuilding and marine technology since then, as well as the abandonment of land transport, China's maritime trade developed at an amazing pace since the mid Tang dynasty. Then the ceramics began to be exported in large amounts and sold in overseas markets as a unique type of international goods. Click here to read more.
