Also, that they were shaved to prevent lice and branded. Another thing is that they were thrown off the ship as punishment, you'd think they'd try to keep them all on to trade more slaves and get more goods.]]> 2023-05-01 12:29:15 UTC https://padlet.com/rybarczykk/w9287wunc1qy84bp/wish/2573660369 bryanzhang80_1 https://padlet.com/rybarczykk/w9287wunc1qy84bp/wish/2573660537 African Slaves were traded for weapons
