During the Middle Ages, it was primarily the Islamic scholars and traders who brought goods and ideas from the East to Europe. They played a crucial role in preserving and transmitting classical knowledge, including texts from the Byzantine Empire, as well as contributions from ancient Greece and Rome. Islamic scholars translated and preserved works in various fields such as science, philosophy, and literature, which later became available to Europeans during the Renaissance, contributing to the revival of classical learning in Western Europe.
