The battle of Actium waged in 31 BCE and the annexation of Egypt in 30 BCE to the Roman Empire opened up avenues for increased commercial contacts between the Roman Empire and South Asia in general and India in particular. As Pliny the Elder (c. 23-79 CE) qualifies, Muziris was the premier emporium of India. Periplus written between 80 CE and 90 CE locates Muziris on the South-Western coast of India, South of Tyndis and north of Nelcynda and Becare in the Kingdom of Cerabothara on the Malabar coast. The reference in the Tamil Sangam literature indicates that Muziris was situated on the banks of the river Periyar emptying itself into the Arabian Sea. The fourth century (CE) Peutingerian table also points out the location of Muziris in the lower Periyar Valley. Till the end of the 1990s Cranganore or Kodungalloor in Trichur district was identified as Muziris of course without any material evidence. For this much anticipated volume quite a few eminent scholars from the USA, Switzerland, United Kingdom, France, Italy and from many Universities in India were invited to share their researches on the maritime trade in the Indian Ocean region in the early historic period against the backdrop of the commercial activities of imperial Rome and Muziris, making it invaluable for scholars of ancient and maritime history.
