Description
The ESSSS project, directed by Jane Landers and administered at Vanderbilt University, digitally preserves endangered ecclesiastical and secular documents related to Africans and African-descended peoples in slave societies. The ESSSS Digital Archive contains over 600,000 unique images, dating from the 16th to the 20th centuries, which document the history of between 4 and 6 million individuals. Although the focus is on Africans and their descendants, these records also include valuable information on the indigenous, European, and Asian populations who lived alongside them.
