Welcome to the course material on 'The Gambia And The Trans-atlantic Slave Trade'. This topic delves into the historical context of The Gambia in relation to one of the most significant and tragic periods in history - the Transatlantic Slave Trade.

The Gambia, a small West African country with a rich cultural heritage, played a notable role in the Transatlantic Slave Trade due to its strategic geographical location along the River Gambia. The river served as a major transportation route for the slave trade, facilitating the capture and transport of enslaved Africans to the Americas.

One of the key objectives of this course is to understand the profound impact of the Transatlantic Slave Trade on the people and society of The Gambia. Enslaved individuals from various ethnic groups such as the Wollof, Mandinka, Fula, Jola, Krio (Aku), and Serahuli were forcibly taken from their homeland and subjected to inhumane conditions during the trade.

Furthermore, we will explore the economic and social implications of the Transatlantic Slave Trade on The Gambia. The trade not only devastated communities and families but also led to significant disruptions in traditional socio-economic systems. The demand for enslaved labor fueled by European colonial powers had far-reaching consequences on the region.

It is essential to examine the role of The Gambia in the Transatlantic Slave Trade, as well as evaluate the lasting effects of this dark period on modern-day Gambian society. The trade left a lasting legacy of trauma, cultural loss, and economic disparity that continue to impact the country and its people today.

Throughout this course, we will delve into the organization and effects of the Transatlantic Slave Trade in The Gambia, considering factors such as trade dynamics, Christianity's impact, and the development of pottery as a cultural and economic practice. By analyzing these aspects, we aim to gain a comprehensive understanding of the historical significance of The Gambia in the context of the Transatlantic Slave Trade.

a. List any three articles of trade exported to North Africa from Western Sudan during the trans-Saharan trade.
b. Highlight any four factors that contributed to the decline of the trans-Saharan trade.

Amsa

a. Three articles of trade exported to North Africa from Western Sudan during the trans-Saharan trade were:

Gold: Gold was one of the most important commodities traded from West Africa to North Africa during the trans-Saharan trade. The region had abundant gold deposits, which were highly valued by North African traders.

Salt: Salt was another important commodity traded during the trans-Saharan trade. North African traders needed salt for food preservation and other purposes, and the West African region had abundant salt deposits.

Slaves: Unfortunately, the trans-Saharan trade also involved the trade of slaves from West Africa to North Africa. This was a significant part of the trade, and many West Africans were captured and sold into slavery in North Africa.

b. Four factors that contributed to the decline of the trans-Saharan trade were:

The rise of sea trade: The development of sea trade routes in the 15th century made it easier and cheaper to trade with Europe and other regions, reducing the demand for trans-Saharan trade.

Political instability: The region was marked by political instability and warfare, which disrupted trade routes and made them unsafe for traders.

Decline of West African empires: The decline of West African empires such as Ghana, Mali, and Songhai also contributed to the decline of the trans-Saharan trade. These empires had played a key role in facilitating trade in the region, and their decline led to a disruption in trade routes.

Technological advances: The development of new technologies such as firearms and other weapons meant that West African traders were at a disadvantage when trading with North African traders, who had access to these new technologies.

Overall, the decline of the trans-Saharan trade was influenced by a combination of factors including the rise of sea trade, political instability, the decline of West African empires, and technological advances.
