Interesting map. Looks like the Church spread along the route of the old Silk Road.

Tradition has it that both apostles Thomas and Bartholomew evangelized in India. Early Christian churches as far as India may have played into medieval legends of Prester John.

Pretty much. The Silk road is overlaid on the older King’s Road of the Persians from Sogdiana to Syria.
