The early medieval trade routes of Eurasia reached its northwestern outpost in Scandinavia. The symposium takes archaeological material from investigations in east Scandinavia as a starting point and opens the research field toward the east, through present-day Russia and Central Asia, to meet current Silk-Roads-related research in China.

Presentations and discussions will be in English.

Admission free, but limited seating, so reserve a seat and register your participation via: bokning@ostasiatiskamuseet.se

Organized by the National Museums of World Culture. In co-operation with the National Historical Museums (SHMM) in Sweden. With the support of The Swedish Foundation for Humanities and Social Sciences.
