The Silk Road is most associated with the exchange of goods, ideas, and culture between the East and West, particularly during the height of its use from the 2nd century BCE to the 14th century CE. It facilitated trade between civilizations such as the Roman Empire, Persia, India, and China, with silk being one of the most valuable commodities traded. Key figures such as Marco Polo are often linked to the Silk Road due to their travels and documentation of the regions and cultures encountered along the trade routes.
