Comments
This image is a composite of 4 separate maps published in Curtin. The four maps show the numbers of slaves transported from Africa to New World areas over the period 1451-1870; thickness of arrows indicates numbers of enslaved to each major area. Although the numbers in this map would be different in light of more recent statistics, the map still gives a graphic idea of the relative intensity of the Atlantic slave trade to New World areas through time.
