This article presents succinctly the dynamics of commercial traffic in goods coming from the Ottoman Empire, as refl ected in the customs accounts of Sibiu from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. One of the main finds of the study consists in the values of recorded trade in Sibiu over the two centuries, which allows for a better assessment of this commerce. The last three decades of the seventeenth century show a doubling in the value of transited goods as well as a large increase in the number of merchants involved in this trade. While there was a rise in participation and in the volume of transported goods, the maximum value of recorded transports dropped. Another signifi cant fi nd of the analysis is that textiles and not spices dominated this trade in products coming from or via the Ottoman Empire. Agents of this oriental trade of Sibiu and of Transylvania were the Greek merchants, whose presence in the principality became stronger during the same period.
