Blacks from the Western Sudan were first imported in great numbers during the Saadian dynasty (16th century) to be employed in the sugar industry. This industry collapsed when cheaper sugar from Brazil flooded the European market. The heyday of slavery in Morocco came later, in the 17th-18th century." That is also something some of us like to ignore as well. Most of the blacks brought to North Africa slaves came after the 15th century. The black people in North Africa were not slaves but Berbers of the 5 great tribes and the Arabians of Sulaym-Hilal or Mudar (of northern Arabian) stock. [/qb][/QUOTE]Dana. This thread may interest you. http://historum.com/middle-eastern-african-history/59751-myth-trans-saharan-slave-trade.html The poster jehosafats knows his stuff. [/qb][/QUOTE]Here I post a link of a Dutch TV show called "Atlas". It's a competition of famous Dutch personalities who battle each other, the whole rivalry takes place in Morocco, Atlas. I don't know if you will be able to see any of this, due to regional blocking. But if you do see something, let me know. It's in Dutch of course, but images tell a lot. They are at a casbah. You will see what local people look like. No gimmicks and no frills. ;) Singing in the Kashba http://youtu.be/GuDrXA1RPQA http://www.uitzendinggemist.nl/afleveringen/1364921 [/qb][/QUOTE]I can see the video. Thanks! Also do you agree that the Maghreb/Northwest Africa was sparsely populated prior to the 16th century? Which is why the non African population EASILY displaces the African one. [/QB][/QUOTE]
