Beginning of the Transatlantic Slave Trade (1 ene 1500 año – 1 ene 1618 año)
Descripción:
From their first contacts, European traders kidnapped and bought Africans to be sold in Europe. However, it was not until the 17th century, when plantation owners wanted more slaves to satisfy the increasing demand for sugar in Europe, that transatlantic slaving became the dominant trade. This material was derived, in large part, from the writings of the International Museum of Slavery.Añadido al timeline:
