Description

Explore the physical and historical impact of slavery on the African continent through this scholarly work from Routledge. This book examines how slavery functioned as a large-scale process that left permanent marks on the African landscape. It details the tangible ways history was shaped, from the capture and transfer of people to the specific avoidance strategies used by vulnerable communities to protect themselves. Readers will learn about the expansion of trade routes and the resulting depopulation of various regions. The text examines the increased reliance on defensive architecture and the use of places of concealment as direct responses to the threat of slaving. By looking at these landscapes through an archaeological lens, the book asks how we can view these sites today and what they reveal about the past. Including studies from Senegal, this book provides a deep look into the spatial and physical history of the era.
