"The
Silk Road route was dangerous due to frequent attacks but in
addition the environment was extremely harsh in places,
varying from deserts to snowy mountains, with temperatures
ranging from -20C to 50C.
Marco Polo was supposedly the first European to complete
this route. Later traders learnt to protect themselves by
travelling in convoys of men and beasts - camels or donkeys.
These were know as caravans.
