前言

It is universally accepted that China during the Tang(618-907)and Song(960-1279)dynasties was more advanced than anywhere else in the world.But for a long time,not many westerners knew about this mysterious Central Dingdom of the Orient.  According to historical records,in the 1st century AD,an Egyptian merchant in Alexandria told his friend that he knew of a country to the northeast of the Ganges called“Khit”.That was Khitan,another name of China at that time.  In 166 AD,the Roman emperor Mare Aurele(121-180)sent an envoy to China.This was the first contact of a western country with China.  In the 5th century AD,Chinese silk was transported to Ceylon(Sri Lanka)and India by boat,and through the hands of persian and Arab merchants,sold very sell in the Mediterranean region.
