One of the most heavily travelled migration routes from Old World
to New was the trajectory of slave ships that left the coast of
West Africa along the Bight of Benin and landed their human cargo
in Brazil. An estimated two million persons over the course of some
250 years were forced migrants along this route, arriving mainly in
the Brazilian province of Bahia. Earlier generations of scholars
studied this southern portion of the slave trade simply as an
east-west movement of enslaved persons stripped of identity and
culture, or they looked for possible retentions of Africa among
descendants of slaves in the Americas.
