It is estimated that almost 12,000,000 slaves were brought into the country traveling the Middle Passage. Although exact counts of how many died in their travels are not known for sure, it is believed between 15 and 20 percent of the 12 million died during transport.

The death toll on the voyage is estimated at around 15%, so roughly 1.8 million died aboard ship. The rate declined over the centuries from a fifth or more to little over a tenth. Many more of course died before embarkation.
