Seller's Description:
New. Excellent New Book. The Parthian Stations, fragmentary as it is, is one of the few records of the overland trade route during the period of struggle between Parthia and Rome. The book gives the itinerary of the caravan trail from Antioch-on-the-Orontes to the borders of India with mention of the resting places (caravanserais) maintained by the Parthian kingdom for the convenience of merchants. This rare edition of W. H. Schoff, absent from the shelves of most libraries, provides a Greek text, English translation and commentary and is followed by all other known fragments. from the lost works of Isidorus (text and translation). To this material is appended Barclay V. Head's study of the coinage of Parthia. Together the works provide an important source for students of ancient economic history and the histories of Parthia, India, and the Levant. 60pp.
