Explanation:

Erythraean was the Greek name for the Red Sea.

Early Tamil literature (the Sangam texts) also mentions different categories of people living in the villages – large landowners or Vellalar, ploughmen or uzhavar and slaves or adimai. It is likely that these differences were based on differential access to land, labour, and some of the new technologies.

From the sixth century BCE, land and river routes crisscrossed the subcontinent and extended in various directions – overland into Central Asia and beyond, and overseas, from ports that dotted the coastline – extending across the Arabian Sea to East and North Africa and West Asia, and through the Bay of Bengal to Southeast Asia and China. Rulers often attempted to control these routes, possibly by offering protection for a price. Those who traversed these routes included peddlers who probably travelled on foot and merchants who travelled with caravans of bullock carts and pack-animals. Also, there were seafarers, whose ventures were risky but highly profitable. Successful merchants, designated as masattuvan in Tamil and setthis and satthavahas in Prakrit, could become enormously rich.

Asoka was widely referred to as Devanampiya and Piyadassi.
