  • Abstract:
  • The history of slave trade activities along the transatlantic seas and coastlines were marked with coercion and intrigue from all the participants that were involved in the game aiming to attain their diverse goals passing through horrors and undergoing beyond the limit of human dignity with laws that guided the trade on human beings. In the contemporary era we find all samples around the global linking to the ill treatment of Aftricans by the former Western European slave dealers. In respect of the above, we began imagining the unknown through or via knowledge thinking from Oral, documented materials, Archeological and other device sources relevant to the domain of research. The traces were a profound suggestion that has no plight as far as mentioning the reality of the different slave routes which greatly developed with the passing of events within time and space. This growth has been rapid and slow in different areas that this historical fact took place. Historians for the transatlantic slave trade estimated that, throughout the period the illicit trade wantonly yielded much profit to both parties concern but strong destroyed African talented and skillful individuals whom could have strongly contributed to the Continent’s development agenda in the course of history.
