Chinese in Roman Britain

[Alanus]

As far as I can tell, Chinese knew about the Roman Empire, called it "Da Qin," but had no idea what a Roman looked like. Even the idea of a trader from the Han Empire finding his way to a south Indian trading center would require fantastic logistics. They did reach Bactria (Kushana) but never went beyond it, according their own historians. This presumptive article sounds like the fantastical "Lost Romans in China" scenario, except the other way around.
