Ancient route

Wasnt this the pass used by the ancient North Silk Road? Mary*wu (talk) 14:54, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it was used during the Han dynasty. The area was occupied by a country called 捐毒 (Juandu). You can read an excerpt about them here. Unfortunately the name has also been used by later bureaucrats to refer to India, so it is hard to Google for. --Voidvector (talk) 13:31, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
