Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Use the mixed map and table showing route type, transport, goods, and environmental constraint for four networks. Which inference best synthesizes the evidence?

AAll routes were identical and controlled by one worldwide empire.

BGeography had no effect on how classical trade moved.

CTrade networks exchanged goods only within local villages.

DClassical trade formed regional networks shaped by geography, technology, and intermediaries rather than direct global unity.

Solution & Explanation:The combined evidence emphasizes multiple linked but distinct systems, each shaped by transport, environment, and people who connected regions.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Use the photograph to answer the question. A textile fragment from a Central Asian oasis contains Chinese silk thread and decorative motifs influenced by western styles. Which conclusion is strongest?

AThe fragment proves all Central Asian towns were Roman colonies.

BThe textile must have been made in the Americas after 1500.

COasis cities could act as contact zones where materials and artistic styles blended.

DNo cultural exchange occurred along overland routes.

Solution & Explanation:Mixed materials and styles from an oasis context support the idea of cultural contact along overland networks.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

AA poem praising silk with no transport information

BShip cargo capacity and shipwreck cargoes compared with pack-animal limits on caravan routes

CA single oasis map with no goods or cargo data
