About this listen

This podcast explores India through Marco Polo’s merchant eyes, revealing a civilization defined by ports, spices, textiles, and global trade networks. Blending Polo’s vivid descriptions with modern historical scholarship, it shows how India functioned as a central engine of the pre-modern global economy—and why its coastal rhythms still feel unmistakably international today.
