Why we need to reach out across the divide Medieval India’s economy reached its pinnacle of glory, and the Indian artisan, with his master skills, caught the eye of European travellers and traders. The textile industry raked in gold and silver, India-made silk and cotton found buyers in ancient Greece, Egypt and the Arab world, and, later, in Europe under colonial rule. Romans apparently gave gold coins in exchange for Indian textiles of the same weight. The earliest known reference is to be found in the Rig Veda. Since ancient times, the Indian textile industry has been much sought after, and its story one of the oldest in the world.
