Ancient Accounts of India and China by Two Mohammedan Travelers Who Went to Those Parts in the 9th Century is a book that presents the travel accounts of two Muslim travelers who ventured to India and China during the 9th century. The travelers, whose names are not known, were likely merchants or diplomats who were sent on official missions to these regions. The book is authored by Eusebius Renaudot, a French orientalist who lived in the 17th century. Renaudot translated and compiled the accounts of the two travelers from their original Arabic manuscripts, which were discovered in the early 17th century. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part containing the account of the traveler who visited India and the second part containing the account of the traveler who visited China. The accounts provide valuable insights into the social, cultural, and economic conditions of India and China during the 9th century. They describe the customs, religions, and languages of the people, as well as the architecture, agriculture, and trade practices of the regions. The travelers also provide detailed descriptions of the cities, towns, and villages they visited, including their layout, landmarks, and notable features. Overall, Ancient Accounts of India and China by Two Mohammedan Travelers Who Went to Those Parts in the 9th Century is a fascinating historical document that sheds light on the early interactions between the Muslim world and the civilizations of India and China. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of these regions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
