The book aims to present a history of the Silk Roads in the Caucasus region from the sixth century to the early fifteenth century-the end of the Mongol-Timurid era and the beginning of the Age of Discoveries, which began ushering in shifts in global connectivity. The volume is based on a range of Georgian, Armenian, Western, Arab, and Persian sources that are often neglected in other works on the Silk Roads. The book demonstrates that the Caucasus served as a major highway in connecting the Eurasian steppes with the Middle East and the Black Sea with inner Asia.
Emil Avdaliani is Professor at the European University in Tbilisi, Georgia. To date, he has authored two books and several articles on the history of the Silk Roads in the Middle East and the Caucasus.
