The concept of “silk roads” evokes images of ancient trade routes connecting China to the world. Recent shifts in the study of Chinese maritime history have led to the title Beyond the Silk Roads, reflecting contemporary trends that extend beyond mere trade discussions. Scholars from China and around the globe, including historians, archaeologists, anthropologists, geographers, sociologists, and political scientists, are engaging with this dynamic field. Drawing on new documentary, literary, archaeological, and ethnographic research, the authors investigate the diverse topics encompassed by maritime history and culture. Employing interdisciplinary and multi-linguistic approaches, the chapters present innovative insights into China’s role in East Asian maritime history. Topics covered include marine archaeology, port cities, sailing routes, trade and cultural networks, nautical technology, folklore, diasporas, maritime law, coastal defense, piracy, smuggling, and religious practices. This volume aims to inspire further research and dialogue on maritime history in general, with a specific focus on Asian maritime history.
