Indian trade and colonies

[Jens Nordlunde]

I don't know about Madagascar, but I would not be surprised, as they could have sailed down along the coast, but I know that Zanzibar was one of the strongholds when it came to the trade.
Btw the Indiand also bought quite a lot of slaves when they were in these waters - also Africa was 'invented' by the Romans who called this part of North Africa, where Cartago was capital - Africa terra.
