British slave traders would supply slaves from Africa to the Spanish colonies in South America, via the island of Jamaica. Many Bristol merchants traded with Jamaica. This meant that many enslaved Africans were shipped to Jamaica in Bristol-owned ships, and later sold on to the Spanish colonies in South.
Traders from Europe and the West Indies brought slaves to the colonies. They had been taken from their homes, chained together in ships and were sold in colonial cites. Most slaves started as indentured servants.
