How Silk Road was Sanskrit Sutra Route: A case of irresistible Indian influence and cursory Chinese presence

Firstpost  

A few years ago, at a seminar, Indologist Lokesh Chandra said that the term ‘Silk Road’ was a misnomer. According to Prof Chandra, the so-called Silk Road was more of a ‘Sutra Road’ as monks and pilgrims used this route to carry Sanskrit manuscripts and disseminate Hindu-Buddhist knowledge and philosophy. Prof Valerie Hansen of Yale University, thus, writes in Silk …

Principally, playing long could use David Raya’s distance kicking to exploit space and a lack of Atalanta coverage further upfield. In Arsenal’s case, with an excellent high press, losing the ball in Atalanta’s third was not a problem. “Against …
