ESSAY ON: Islam and the sub-Saharan Gold Trade

Number of Pages 6

This research paper: A 6 page analysis of the spread of Islam in Africa. This paper connects that spread to the Islamic quest for gold and the sub-Saharan gold trade which resulted. Observations are made to support the contention that that cross cultural contact greatly increased as a result of the Islamic and African participation in the trans-Saharan gold trade and that this increased contact led not only to the spread of Islam among the indigenous peoples of Africa but also a diversity of positive and negative impacts to those peoples. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
