Turfan said: "Ford Trucks is a brand combining almost 60 years of experience with the capabilities to manufacture products tailored to different customer needs in various markets."
Centred around four cities Xi'an,
Turfan, Samarkand and Baghdad, the interactive exhibition covers the period between 600AD to 1200AD when traffic along the Silk Road was at its peak.
Four cities that flourished during that time were showcases at the exhibition: Xian, the ancient capital of China;
Turfan, a fertile oasis; Samarkand, a grand city of commerce; and Baghdad, then the centre of the Islamic world.
In addition, onomastic data from archeological finds and inscriptional sources that lean heavily towards the non-elite, such as those uncovered at Dunhuang and
Turfan as well as the dedicatory inscriptions in northern China, would thus prove to be not quite consistent with traditional sources.
