Abstract | Interactions and interdependence between nomadic and agricultural peoples are important topics of world history. This article seeks to track the migration and transformation of the Yuezhi-Kushan from a nomadic people residing on the borders of agricultural China to the ruling elite of an empire embracing much of central Asia and south Asia. Interactions between nomadic and sedentary peoples had impacts on both Yuezhi-Kushan society and the agricultural societies that traded with the nomads (such as China) or that were ruled by nomads (such as India). |
