Le fil des jours - Dona Rodrigue. Lafauteadiderot.net. Entretien avec Ibrahima Thioub, directeur du Département d’histoire de l’Université Cheikh Anta Diop de Dakar Comment capturait-on les esclaves dans le cadre de la traite atlantique ? Ibrahima Thioub. Il y avait trois voies principales : la voie marchande, la voie pénale et la voie martiale, la vente de prisonniers de guerre. Le plus souvent, les Etats guerriers ne faisaient pas le commerce eux-mêmes, parce qu’ils étaient spécialisés dans la guerre. Avec le développement de la traite, dans certaines régions, des bandes armées se forment, qui se spécialisent dans la chasse aux esclaves.

Encore aujourd’hui, dans les villages du Sénégal, on dit qu’il ne faut pas sortir aux heures les plus chaudes de la journée ou au moment où le soleil va se coucher. Comment se faisait le contact entre les commerçants européens et ces chasseurs d’esclaves ? Ibrahima Thioub. Ils avaient des réseaux, qui connaissaient les routes par lesquelles passer pour ne pas être interceptés. Ibrahima Thioub. American History. Site de Philippe Remacle. American History.

Some chronicler, speaking of Asia, asserted that one man ruled as much land as the sun passed, and his statement was not true because he placed all Africa and Europe outside the limits where the sun rises in the East and sets in the West.

It has now however turned out to be true. Your possession is equal to what the sun can pass, and the sun passes over your land.

History - British History in depth: London: 'A Modern Babylon' Who wrote first? But did writing really originate on the banks of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers? Not according to archeologist Günter Dreyer, director of the German Institute of Archaeology in Cairo.

If he's right, the Earth-shattering invention occurred on the banks of the Nile. In a December press release that was picked up by many wire services, Dreyer said he'd found writing on a group of small bone or ivory labels dating from 3,300 to 3,200 BC. Writing, here, means a symbolic representation of language, not pictures representing concrete objects. The labels were attached to bags of linen and oil in the tomb of King Scorpion I in Egypt. They apparently indicated the origin of the commodities. Like the symbolic systems of pictographs that preceded writing, the inscriptions contained symbols. Thus a pictograph of an eye might stand for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. But Dreyer maintains that the labels he's studied carry inscriptions with phonetic significance.
