How did people travel during the Shang Dynasty?

During the Shang Dynasty (c. 1600–1046 BCE), people primarily traveled by foot or used animals such as horses and oxen for transportation. Chariots, pulled by horses, were significant for military and elite purposes, enabling faster travel and communication. River systems also played a crucial role in transportation, with boats being used for trade and movement along waterways. Overall, travel was limited compared to modern standards, relying heavily on available land and water routes.
