Kehadiran orang Eropa, termasuk orang Romawi, di wilayah yang pada saat itu dikenal sebagai "India" (Asia Selatan modern, termasuk India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, dan Afghanistan timur), selama periode Kekaisaran Romawi, tidak terdokumentasi dengan baik. Sebelum penaklukan Aleksander, tidak ada catatan yang bertahan hidup dari orang-orang sezaman atau yang hampir sezaman tentang kontak antara Eropa dan Asia Selatan, sehingga pemahaman modern bergantung pada bukti sastra, numismatik, dan arkeologi yang lebih melimpah, terutama yang berkaitan dengan perdagangan di antara mereka. Orang Romawi disebut sebagai Romaka di India sementara orang Romawi menyebut orang India sebagai Indo.
