A great deal has been said on this website about the trade routes between Alexandria and India/Sri Lanka. It is interesting to note, that the only two civilizations between these two points that seem to have flourished were the Nabataeans and the Himyarites of Southern Arabia. The Himryarite Kingdom only flourished after direct involvement of the Nabataeans at the head of a Roman Army, which crushed the South Arabian kingdoms that faced towards the desert, allowing the Himyarite Kingdom nearer the Arabian Sea to expand and export their incense by ship, via the port of Cane.
