>>2045475im not sure we have recovered or discovered wrecks in a condition (theyre made of wood and slave ships changed dramatically after the banning of the trade in the early 1800s ) to prove images like this are not an exaggeration.
several vessels used for slaving have been discovered from the period after the ending of the slave trade swapping cargo size for speed. Clotilda was found in 2019 for example. Lloyds of London insured many of the larger vessels and being an insurance company, the records are quite extensive when the slave trading was still legal. Search engine of your choice is your friend.
