so they don't run away
Yes slaves were used as bed warmers. The term bed warmer is a sexual sense that the slave would have sex with the master.
Basically slaves would resist slavery due to the harsh treatment they came across but the slave masters in which they would the resist the Masters strongly believe that the resisted because they were taken from their home land by the whites without the Africans permission
The role of the Slaves in The Athens were very simple, but hard. They are given 1 meal a day by their rich master, and are forced to keep the ''House'' clean. The slave does all of the cooking, cleaning, and farming. If a Slave is cough not working, he may be killed. A slaves life is harsh. Slaves get breaks once in a while, but for now they live with their masters and are forced to clean up the farmland, and so on. There are also Stay at home wives.
A "Slave Row" was generally a line of very small cabins in which the slaves had to eat, sleep, etc... It was basically their home.
Amerigo Vespucci found up to 40 Indians to bring back as slaves.
Some stayed on their home plantations as hired hands, some became sharecroppers, and some left to seek other opportunities. We can't say ANY slave owners were really nice, because your heart should tell you that it is never right to own another human being. Some slave owners were less reprehensible and treated their slaves better than others , some were pragmatic, and some were [rightly so] afraid of freed slaves. Slavery was the shame of our nation , never to be tolerated here again, and must be spoken against everywhere in the world, especially where the " slave masters" are an oppressive government.
A plantation is a farm, which produced agricultural products. It was worked by a slave labor force. It is the place where the slaves slept and ate since the plantation was also their home.
They slept in their masters home next to the fire place.
depends. Plantation owners had slaves ranging from 20 to 100s. home owners had slaves as servants ranging from 1 to 3. the armies too had slaves. the number of slaves owned depended on the needs of the owners.
Slavery was a common feature of intertribal warfare among primitive peoples around the world, in both the new world and the old. You would defeat your enemy in battle and take captives, bringing them home as slaves. Those slaves or sometimes their children were usually integrated into the community and became full members, and the living conditions of masters and slaves were usually very similar. In the case of the African slave trade, European merchants offered high prices for slaves at African coastal trading centers, and local African merchants cashed in on this, traveling inland to buy recently captured slaves and then driving them to the coast for sale to European slave traders. This trade created a cash incentive for the more aggressive tribes to mount slave raids against their neighbors, seriously disrupting society far inland from the coastal slave markets.
not if it meant losing their house & home, the slaves in the far south were probably the happiest
i dont think the missionaries was the cause of the slaves action because the slave eventually got tired nd they were home sick and they wanted to be FREE!!!!!
