| Summary/Abstract |
Port had played an important role in colonial trade and urbanization. In pre-colonial period, riverine and maritime routes where major means of transportation, as there was a lack of fast moving, developed land transport systems. As a result, trade in India was mostly riverine and sea borne trade, rather than land borne trade. While riverine trade was mostly related to inland trade. Sea trade was related external trade.
