For over 2,000 years, the location of the Stone Tower, mid-point of the ancient Silk Road, has remained a mystery. This book traces the search for its true site, arguing for its identification as Sulaiman-Too mountain in Kyrgyzstan, and explores its significance in ancient trade, geography, and cultural history.
