What would have been the over-land gateway between the two countries in the ancient spice trade? Perhaps even a "gate" that has not been used in all these years. I am interested in corresponding with someone who is very knowledgable about the ancient Mediterranean spice routes and spice trades.

Go to Discovery.com and Marco Polo, in the 14th Century he traveled the "spice route" to China and brought back the first spaghetti the West knew. It was in existence long before this though. The first Chinese emperor of China traded with the West around 3 thousand B.C. when the wall was built before the Western corridor was closed due to fighting.

If you look at a map you can see that any trading would be easiest by sea. The ancient Greeks were traders and settlers, and parts of modern Turkey were Greek kingdoms.

buddy, Hinduism isn't the call given to the Dharma that replaced into being accompanied in Aryaavartam or Bharata Varsham. some people who lived the different component of river Indus (Sindhu) called the people on the different component Hindu and gradually hinduism replaced into coined. sanatana Dharma is the call it is reported in Scriptures. it isn't any longer a faith yet lifestyle.it is the version.. So from historic situations it is being referred as Sanatana dhrma in straight forward terms.

You might try the history forum rather than anthropology.
Other than the well-known silk road route throubh Byzantium / Konstantinopolis / Istanbul there were other overland routes.
