Answer:The Indian Ocean that brought in trade from Arabia and Africa

Step-by-step explanation:

This led to the business boom with Arabia, Rome and Africa which were flourishing markets for Indian goods at the time.

Through this route many scientific advancements and technologies traveled to and fro India. Thus this route was the most important.
