摘要:

Transatlantic trade affectedthe coastal area of West Africa that became Liberia in 1822. The impact of that trade has confused historians of the region, particularly the social and economic effects the trade had on the Vai, Kru, Glebo, and other ethnic groups. Before the arrival of Europeans in the fifteenth century, coastal pre‐Liberia had been affected by internal and external social dynamics. The Mande, Mel, and Kwa were the first linguistic groups to reside in the region. The earliest home of the Mande has been traced to the area north of the Niger River, but there is disagreement as to the origins of the Mel and Kwa. All three linguistic groups contributed to population growth. Indeed, such Mel‐speaking ethnic groups as the Kissi and Gola, and such Kwa‐speakers as the Dei, Bassa, Kran, Kru, and Glebo came to pre‐Liberia in about 988 A.D. The Mande‐speaking groups, including the Mende, Bandi, Loma, and Vai, settled long after the other two linguistic groups had moved there. The Vai, isolated from other Mande‐speakers for over two thousand years, reached the coastal area in the sixteen
