India had trade relations with the western countries through ancient times.
- Discoveries at Mohenjo-daro in Sind demonstrated a connection with western Asia. The essential port traded with Oman and the Egyptian civilization by sea.
- Contacts between the Sindhu Valley and West/Central Asia were also developed through the land route.
- Since the time of the life of the Indus Valley Civilization in India, India had trade ties with the western world, both by land and sea.
- In Mesopotamia, some Indus valley seals were found, suggesting that India had direct trade ties with it. India also maintained trade ties with Babylon and Persia.
- Another point of contact between the two countries was the invasion of India by Alexander. The first three Mauryan emperors subsequently had personal relations with Greece and India's close ties with Greece were given by Asoka's 13th Rock Edict, in which five Greek rulers are identified.
