Well its not a really a designated road by name like the roman roads or the Royal Road "El Camino Real" Kings highway The silk road is a bunch of interconnected ancient routes taken by caravans as trade routes from the far east and have been in use since the 1st century AD http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk_Road http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Transasia_trade_routes_1stC_CE_gr2.png
