TimbuktuSlide5

Timbuktu

Make a list of 5 things you see in this photo. Take with your shoulder partner – what can you know about these people – use evidence from the photo to support your conclusions.Slide6

Legend of TimbuktuTake PEGS notesSlide7

Cultural and Spiritual CapitalAncient Mosque in Timbuktu

For West Africans, however, Timbuktu was an economic and cultural capital equal in historical importance to acclaimed cities like Rome, Athens, Jerusalem, and Mecca. Slide8

Trade Center: Gold and SaltTimbuktu was founded around 1100 C.E. as a camp for its proximity to the Niger River. Caravans quickly began to haul salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trade for gold and slaves brought along the river from the south.Slide9

Center of Commerce and EducationProsperity made by the trans-Saharan trade routes brought great wealth to the city. This wealth attracted not only merchants and traders but also men of academic and religious learning.

Scholars in the fabled African city, once a great center of learning and trade, are racing to save a still emerging cache of ancient manuscripts.Slide10

Great mosques, universities, schools, and libraries were built under the Mali and Songhai Empires, some of which still stand today.Slide11

Decline of TimbuktuPortuguese navigators ensured Timbuktu's decline by establishing reliable trade with the West African coast and undercutting the city's commercial power.Slide12

Bacon’s Rebellion

Take your notes from the film in this format

Slide13
Slide14

Bacon’s RebellionLed 1,000 Virginians in a rebellion against Governor BerkeleyRebels resented Berkeley’s close relations with Indians. Berkeley profited from the Indians but refused to deal with Indian attacks on frontier settlements.Berkeley monopolized the fur trade with the Indians in the area.

Bacon threatened Berkeley at gunpoint and burned parts of Jamestown

Significance: Civilian challenging royal authority in the name of liberty. Bacon felt his life was threatened by Indians.Slide15

Effects of Bacon’s RebellionRebels attacked Indians, whether they were friendly or not to whites.Governor Berkeley driven from Jamestown.They burned the capital.Rebels went on a rampage of plundering.Bacon suddenly died of fever.Berkeley brutally crushed the rebellion and hanged 20 rebels.Slide16

What did it expose?Socio-economic class differences/clashes between rural and urban communities would continue throughout American history.Upper class planters searched for laborers less likely to rebel  BLACK SLAVES!!Slide17

Using this map as evidence, what conclusions can you draw about the slave trade?(T/P/S)Slide18

SlaverySlavery has existed since ancient timesEvidence:“Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.” New Testament, Ephesians 6, Chapter 6, Verse 8.Slide19

Before the sixteenth century, slavery was not regarded by anyone (outside or inside Africa) as a particularly African institution. The association between Africa and slavery emerged in the fifteenth century. It was then that ship design made it possible for sailors from the Mediterranean to make long journeys down the coast of Africa and ultimately across the Atlantic to the Americas.By the time the slaves reached the coast, they had already undertaken a long journey from inland. They were often bought and sold several times along the way. Many of these transactions were conducted in the market place.Slide20

SlaveryPeople were enslaved many times as the result of war.As native peoples in North America began dying in large numbers due to European diseases, Africans were imported to replace them.Late 1400s Europeans were trading guns for slaves captured during wars in West Africa.

In the 1500s, Europeans began shipping slaves to the Caribbean for sale.Slide21

Slave TradeMany African states & kingdoms sold people as slaves to Europeans & AmericansMost slaves were prisoners of war sold into slaveryAfter development European sailing ships, Slave trade became important source of wealth for kings

The removal of so many skilled people devastated West African families, villages, & economiesSlide22
Slide23

At the height of the slave trade in the 18th century an estimated six million Africans were forced to make a journey across the Atlantic often totalling over 4,000 miles. Over 54,000 voyages were made in the course of three hundred years between the 16th and 19th centuries.The large proportion of slaves ended up in the Caribbean, approximately 42%. Around 38% went to Brazil, and much fewer, about 5%, went to North America. The journey from Africa to North America was the longest. The journey could take as little as 35 days, just over a month (going from Angola to Brazil). But normally British and French ships took two to three months. Slide24

Ships carried anything from 250 to 600 slaves. They were generally very overcrowded. In many ships they were packed like spoons, with no room even to turn, although in some ships a slave could have a space about five feet three inches high and four feet four inches wide. The slaves were kept between the hold and the deck in appalling conditions.Olaudah Equiano gave the first eyewitness account of life on a ship from a slave's point of view Slide27

"I was soon put down under the decks, and there I received such a salutation in my nostrils as I had never experienced in my life: so that, with the loathsomeness of the stench, and crying together, I became so sick and low that I was not able to eat, nor had I the least desire to taste anything.I now wished for the last friend, death, to relieve me; but soon, to my grief, two of the white men offered me eatables; and on my refusing to eat, one of them held me fast by the hands and laid me across I think the windlass, and tied my feet, while the other flogged me severely.

I had never seen among any people such instances of brutal cruelty; and this not only shewn towards us blacks, but also some of the white themselves. One white man in particular I saw, when we were permitted to be on deck, flogged so unmercifully with a large rope near the foremast, that he died in consequence of it."Slide31

Most historians now agree that at least 12 million slaves left the continent between the fifteenth and nineteenth century, but ten to twenty percent died on board ships. Thus a figure of 11 million slaves transported to the Americas is the nearest demonstrable figure historians can produce Slide32

How to Analyze a document?Intended audience – Who was it written for? Who was left out?Purpose – Why was the document written?
