The number of slaves on a large ship during the transatlantic slave trade varied significantly, but it typically ranged from 200 to over 600 individuals. Some of the largest ships could carry even more, with records indicating capacities of up to 1,000 slaves. Conditions were extremely cramped and inhumane, leading to high mortality rates during voyages. The specific number depended on the ship's size, design, and the practices of the slave traders.

The heat was also very intense, and slaves were fed very little, so many died of heatstroke, dehydration, or hunger.They would pack as many slaves as they could on one ship, often exceeding the person limit of the boat.

What determined how many slaves could be carried on a slave ship?

The size of the ship, the conditions for transporting slaves, the regulations in place, and the profits that could be gained all influenced how many slaves could be carried on a slave ship.
