Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from The Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland, 1886, Vol. 18 It was by such mercantile settlements in seaport towns spread along the winding coast-line of Southern Asia, from Suez to Canton, that knowledge of various kinds could be very easily communicated from one country to another. This might happen at any time, from the beginning of ocean navigation in the third millennium before Christ, at the mouth of the Euphrates, down to modern days. This is the simplest way to account for the diffusion of the common arts and institutions and the common beliefs of the oriental nations. We speak of oriental magnificence, oriental imagery, oriental hospitality, oriental imagination, oriental costume. The reason why the word Oriental serves for China, India, Persia, and Arabia alike, is partly because the intercourse always maintained between these countries by sea has occasioned a considerable identity in customs, in thinking, and in religion.
