Abstract

In our text we deal with the reality of the slave trade which we consider the longest and most dramatic forced migration of World History. Therefore, we try to reveal aspects of everyday life, through a cross cultural interpretation which, in the matter of slave trade, is based, above all, on the testimonies of those who exercised the dominion.
