12 Dec 06Slave chain from Llyn Cerrig Bach, Anglesey
This chain dates from the period immediately before the Roman invasion of Britain, and was found with other sacrificial offerings in a lake on the isle of Anglesey. It is not clear whether the slaves it held were a chain gang of labourers, captives to be sacrificed themselves, or slaves to be traded for profit elsewhere.

8 Dec 06Slave coffle
This mid-nineteenth century engraving is probably associated with David Livingston's expeditions to East Africa, partly to document and help suppress the slave trade there. Most of the men are placed in "Goree sticks", with their necks held in a Y-shaped tree branch by an iron bolt or leather strap.

8 Dec 06Turks leading captives
This German woodcut from 1529 shows two female slaves taken by Turkish sipahis or landed cavalry officers, similar to medieval knights. In this period, the Ottoman Turks occupied much of south eastern Europe, and were aggressively trying to expand. When they did, their practice was to take slaves from the non-Muslim occupants of conquered territories. [more...]
