The Silk Road derives its name from the lucrative Asian silk, a major reason
for the connection of trade routes into an extensive transcontinental
network. The German terms Seidenstraße and Seidenstraßen ("the Silk
Road(s)") were coined by Ferdinand von Richthofen, who made seven
expeditions to China from 1868 to 1872. The term Silk Route is also used.
Although the term was coined in the 19th century, it did not gain widespread
acceptance in academia or popularity among the public until the 20th
century.
