Where were the African slaves originally sold?
It depends on where you want to begin the long trip these people made. Often, they were sold by the chiefs of their tribes for one reason or another. Perhaps to get rid of some weak people or an annoying neighbor. The Africans fought much like we did and still do over food supplies and land. Those that won sold off the male children and adult captives to traders looking for slaves to bring to the New World. The Old World also used slaves. Once the 75-80% made it to port after chained in a closed hold for 3 weeks, they were sold in a slave market. They were sold to other slave markets in other towns and cities by traders. You have to understand that they were considered property like horses, cattle and farm supplies and were traded between one farmer and another or given as gifts.
