Thus Italy renewed contact with antiquity which provided humanist scholars with new texts.</h2><h2 /><h2>The main trade routes from the east passed through the Byzantine Empire or the Arab lands and onwards to the ports of Genoa, Pisa, and Venice. Luxury goods bought in the Levant, such as spices, dyes, and silks, were imported to Italy and then resold throughout Europe.
