The Periplus of the Erythraean Sea is a historical travelogue and trade manual written by an anonymous merchant in the first century. The book provides a detailed account of the trade routes, ports, and commodities of the Indian Ocean region, including India, the Arabian Peninsula, Africa, and Southeast Asia. The author describes the geography, culture, and customs of the various regions, as well as the goods traded, such as spices, textiles, and precious stones. The book is a valuable source of information for scholars of ancient history, geography, and economics, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of maritime trade in the early centuries CE. This edition, translated and annotated by Wilfred H. Schoff, includes additional historical and geographical context, as well as a glossary and index for easy reference.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
