Sino-Iranica: China and Ancient Iran by Berthold Laufer Pdf
In this major study - regarded as his most important work - the pioneering anthropologist, Berthold Laufer documents the cultural transfers that took place between China and Iran in ancient times. He does so by tracing the history of cultivated plants, drugs, products, minerals, metals, precious stones and textiles, in their migration from Persia to China and from China to Persia. Walnut, peach, apricot and olive, as well as more exotic products like jasmine, henna, indigo, lapis lazuli, amber, coral, gold, ebony, zinc and myrrh are all included. Few other publications provide so much informative detail about the way human activity has modified the natural world through the movement of plants and other natural resource products from one historical civilisation to another. The work also offers important detail on Iran for periods when Iranian sources are slim. Introduced by Brian Spooner, Professor of Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania, this classic work is once more available for all scholars of Iran, China and cultural exchange.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ... in a cultivated state, and does not even succeed well, the fruit being mediocre and acid.1 There is no ancient Sanskrit name for the tree; nor does it play any rdle in the folk-lore of India, as it does in China. Further, as regards the time of the introduction, whether the reign of Kaniska be placed in the first century before or after our era, it is singularly synchronous with the transplantation of the tree into western Asia. 5. As indicated by the Persian name dar-llni or dar-iin ("Chinese wood" or "bark"; Arabic dar fini), cinnamon was obtained by the Persians and Arabs from China.2 Ibn Khordadzbeh, who wrote between A.d. 844 and 848, is the first Arabic author who enumerates cinnamon among the products exported from China.3 The Chinese export cannot have assumed large dimensions: it is not alluded to in Chinese records, Cao 2u-kwa is reticent about it.4 Ceylon was always the main seat of cinnamon production, and the tree (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) is a native of the Ceylon forests.6 The bark of this tree is also called dar-clm. It is well known that cassia and cinnamon are mentioned by classical authors, and have given rise to many sensational speculations as to the origin of the cinnamon of the ancients. Herodotus6 places cinnamon in Arabia, and tells a wondrous story as to how it is gathered. Theophrastus7 seeks the home of cassia and cinnamomum, together with frankincense and myrrh, in the Arabian peninsula about Saba, Hadramyt, Kitibaina, and Mamali. Strabo3 locates it in the land of the Sabaeans, in Arabia, also in Ethiopia and southern India; finally he has a "cinnamon-bearing country" at the end of the habitable countries of the south, on the shore of the Indian ocean.9 Pliny10has cinnamomum or cinnamum grow in the country of...
