Produktinformationen zu „Before Middle Passage: Translated Portuguese Manuscripts of Atlantic Slave Trading from West Africa to Iberian Territories, 1513-26 (PDF)“
On the 20th of January 1526, the Santiago left Lisbon bound for Africa with a cargo of iron and cloth; by early October the ship was back in Portugal with a very different cargo, 108 enslaved Africans. This volume consists of a translation into English of the receipt book from the customs office of the Cape Verde Islands. In it, Portuguese customs agents recorded import duties on over 3,000 slaves transported from nearby West Africa in 36 ships. The book also provides details of export taxes paid on c.600 African slaves by merchants from Portugal, Spain, and the Spanish Canary Islands, when they exchanged European merchandise for slaves. The final chapter of the volume translates the Santiago's log, providing an example of an actual slave trading expedition. Taken together these documents open a rare window into the workings and scope of the early Atlantic slave trade.
