During medieval times, traders from Greece, India, and Southeast Asia landed on the ________ coast of Africa.

1: East

2: West

3: South

4: North

Answer 1

The correct answer should be 1. East. They found a way to go through the Mediterranean sea into the Arabian Gulf and from there into the Indian Ocean, which allowed them to land on the eastern coast of Africa and establish trading stations for resting or reorganizing or fixing ships or things like that.
