History Of Trade

Trade provides mankind's most significant meeting place, the market. In primative socities only religious events - cult rituals, or rites of passage such as marriage - bring people together in a comparable way. But in these cases the participants are already linked, by custom or kinship.
The process of barter brings a crowd together in a more random fashion. New ideas, along with precious art facts, have always travelled along trade routes. and the natural week, the shared rythem of a community, has frequently been the space between markete days.
Agriculture produced and everyday household goods tend to make short journeys to and from a local market. Trade in a grander sense, between distant places, is a different matter. It involves entrepreneures and middlemen, people willing to accept, delay and risk the hope of a large profit. The archive found at ebla gives a glimpse of an early trading city, from the middle of the third millenium BC.
There was a greast problem in exchanging wheat with cows, clothes with rice, shoes with sheep etc. So gradually barter system was updated in exchanging goods with the coins of gold, as gold is a precious metal silver and bronz coins were introduced afterwards. People felt more better than barter and so it invented the system of modern age "Money System".
To avoide dangers of robbery and quarrels while travelling science helped a lot and gradually by the construction of ROADS and HIGH WAYS, and also by the inventions of motor vehicles, planes and ships TRADE became quite easy. Now in these days no matter people travel all over the world TRADING GOODS, and making their PROFITS.
