- Abstract
This article provides an analysis of a slave trading operation designed by Brazilian merchants which connected Luanda, Mozambique, Rio de Janeiro and Montevideo by the 1830s. The African “colonists” of Montevideo were not only the last generation of slaves directly brought from Africa to Uruguay, but also the last enslaved Africans who arrived in any of the new republics of mainland Spanish America. Information concerning the networks that had legally and illegally brought slaves to the colonial Rio de La Plata are included.
