African kings sold slaves to the Portuguese and the Dutch primarily for economic gain. They engaged in the transatlantic slave trade as a means to acquire European goods, such as firearms, textiles, and other commodities, which were valuable in their own societies. Additionally, the demand for labor on plantations in the Americas created a lucrative market for enslaved individuals, incentivizing African leaders to participate in the trade. This complex interaction was shaped by both local power dynamics and the broader forces of European colonial expansion.
Abandoned children in Rome were made into slaves, fathers had the right to sell their children as slaves, and slaves were also captured in wars and brought back to Rome to be sold.

To sell them as slaves.
I am no history major, but from what i understand slaves were not generally bought. they were captured. there were some tribes that would sell their slaves they had captured from other tribes, but usually by the slaves were caught by the slave hunters. who would transport them to their markets. the golden triangle as it was called back in the gunboat deplomacy days was when a trader would sell opium in china, go to Africa and capture slaves and then after selling the slaves in America buy molassess and head back to England.
