Biological Consequences of European Expansion, 1450–1800
Biological Consequences of the European Expansion, 1450-1800
The Case Against A Nineteenth-Century Cuba-Florida Slave Trade
The belief that there existed a sizable clandestine traffic in Negro slaves between the island of Cuba and Florida after 1808 has been a persistent one in the historiography of slavery in the United States. Perhaps most important is that the Atlantic slave trade to Cuba, despite its illegal nature after 1820, continued to grow in volume until the middle 1860s and even then slaves continued to be imported to the island until slavery itself was fin…
Biology and African Slavery
This article reviews scholarship on the biology of African slaves. Mother Africa ensured that her sons and daughters could tolerate a disease environment sufficiently harsh that it served as a barrier to European outsiders for many centuries, keeping them confined to the coast and, save for some notable exceptions, away from the interior. Falciparum malaria and yellow fever, however, the chief ramparts in this barrier, did not remain confined to …

The Backbone of History
This work represents something of an introduction to macrobioarchaeology, where the fields of paleonutrition, paleopathology, and paleodemography intersect and overlap. It features the skills of some fifty noted anthropologists, anatomists, biologists, economists, geographers, and historians in interpreting findings from the skeletal remains of 12,520 individuals who died in the Western Hemisphere between 5,000 BC and the late nineteenth century.…
Human Frontiers, Environments and Disease
A noted public health scientist and epidemiologist at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Tony McMichael takes up in this work very large and daunting questions of the determinants of human health—from the hunter-gatherer days, through the invention of agriculture, to the present, and then into a future made uncertain by our spectacular reproductive success on the one hand and our increasingly intensive economic activities on the …
Malaria
Island Epidemics (review)
Following closely on the heels of the authors' Deciphering Global Epidemics (1998), the present work provides a world picture of disease for the past century and a half. It is the latest in a series of elegant epidemiologic studies by British professors Andrew Cliff and Peter Haggett, recently joined by Matthew Smallman-Raynor. One of the hallmarks of these authors is a meticulous and rigorous approach to their studies, which Island Epidemics exe…
The Physician and the Slave Trade
Daniel Liebowitz is a physician who, while in Zanzibar in 1993, learned about another physician who had lived there well over a century before. In 1873 John Kirk, trained in medicine at Edinburgh, was named British Consul General of Zanzibar, which made him the highest-ranking British official in East Africa. Prior to that he had been a companion of and physician to David Livingstone on his second Zambezi expedition (1858-63), as well as a natura…

Mortality Caused by Dehydration during the Middle Passage
Accounts abound of slaves suffering from lack of water during the middle passage, many of them collected during testimony before the British Parliament and by British abolitionists. A Captain Hayes spoke of a cargo “labouring under the most famishing thirst. . . being in very few instances allowed more than a pint of water a day” (Buxton, 1844: 154–155). Thomas Clarkson (1969 [1789]: 573) claimed that he had seen slaves “almost dying from want of…

The Nutritional Link with Slave Infant and Child Mortality in Brazil
IN 1970, a World Health Organization consultant wrote that [B]eriberi has never been endemic in the large areas in the tropics and subtropics where rice is not a staple food.' This study has three aims: (i) to prove the consultant wrong by demonstrating through the discovery process of beriberi in Brazil that it was, in fact, endemic there in the nineteenth century and earlier, especially among the slaves although rice was not an important part o…

Deficiency Diseases in the Caribbean The historiography of slavery in the Americas has recently taken on a new biological dimension as historians have begun to appreciate the importance of pathogenic agents in any holistic understanding of their subject. Of special interest is the impact of these agents on slave mortality and, more specifically, the extent of the role that they played in preventing most Caribbean slave populations from sustaining…
Cholera and Race in the Caribbean
This study is offered as an initial exploration of the complex subject of cholera in the nineteenth-century Caribbean. As such, one purpose will be simply to describe the course of the three cholera epidemics that invaded the nineteenth-century Caribbean. Another more complicated aim is to attempt to measure the amount of mortality that the disease inflicted on the peoples of those islands for which data are available. A third purpose is to exami…
Another Dimension to the Black Diaspora
This is an engrossing study of black disease immunities and susceptibilities and their impact on both slavery and racism. Its pages interweave the nutritional, biological, and medical sciences with demography. The book begins with an examination of the pre-slavery era in Africa and then pursues its subject into the slave societies of the West Indies and the United States. This truly interdisciplinary approach permits the blending of two distincti…

The Caribbean Slave
This study focuses on the black biological experience in slavery, in the Caribbean. It begins with a consideration of the rapidly changing disease environment after the arrival of the Spaniards; it also looks at the slave ancestors in their West African homeland and examines the ways in which the nutritional and disease environments of that area had shaped its inhabitants. In a particularly innovative chapter, he considers the epidemiological and…
