Large commercial affairs were transacted from the East ; naval supremacy and a mercantile mar- ine were there. From Constantine to Herac- lius, if the West was growing to be less and less of an expensive market, the Greeks con- trived to supply what market there was, and nearer home their market was very good. The political control of the world had greatly shifted since Hadrian's visitations, at which time there was no lack in Britain and on the Rhine of all the luxuries of the East — Aegean vi...ntages and cloths, perfumes, spices, and jew- 66 EAST BY WEST els of India, ivory and slaves of Africa, silks of China, objects of art in marbles, metals, paint- ings, and earthenware. Changed conditions brought impoverishment to the West, and un- der Justinian, where there had been luxury, there was hardly a sufficiency of the rudest commodities. Until long after Justinian, despite of Persia, the management and political control of the world's commerce had lain with Constantinople. Persia in the way, Justinian had been forced to a measure of vast conse- quence to the Greeks, as the event was with the coming of the Saracens.
