Development of a post slave society
Posted: Wed Oct 27, 2021 5:20 am
In addition to my Balto Slavic TL and The Lands of Nuts and Deer I am also writing a small fantasy TL about Jamaica being transported back from 1750 AD to 1750 BC with a population of 300, i.e. only people who remain in the island are 300 ex slaves in the Kingston area.
How would such a society develop? Do you think they would go back to slavery or stay as free society? How long until they build ships capable of crosing the ocean? What about writing since slaves were illiterate and generaly forbidden from being taught to read/write?
