Sea-ports played a crucial role in Indian sea trade from 1000 to 1500. They attracted a mix of foreign and local merchants, leading to economic growth. Factors like security, justice, and access to raw materials helped turn simple ports into bustling trading hubs. Regions like Sind, Gujarat, and Bengal were key players in this maritime trade. The main goal was to identify the chief trading emporiums in India during this period, and the study used historical accounts to do so. The research found that these ports attracted a large volume of sea traffic due to their strategic locations and favorable conditions for trade.
