This volume comprises a selection of essays by scholars from a
variety of disciplines that discuss the exchange relationship
between Africa and the wider Indian Ocean world (IOW), a
macro-region running from East Africa to China, from early times to
about 1300 CE. The rationale for regarding this macro-region as a
"world" is the central significance of the monsoon system which
facilitated the early emergence of long-distance trans-IOW maritime
exchange of commodities, peoples, plants, animals, technologies and
ideas.
