A source-grounded exhibition connecting market history to wider commercial and human networks across the Moogo, western Sudan and Sahara. The Museum keeps context, source status and relationship type together so a visitor can move from object and place to the people explicitly documented in this exhibition.

HISTORICAL STATUS: Historical captive or slave status is published only when a source explicitly supports that role; it is never assigned to living people or descendants by association.
