Which source would give the most accurate number of enslaved persons in the colonies? Government records of the sale of enslaved persons Paintings and images of enslaved persons on large farms Writings about the lives of enslaved persons from eyewitnesses Stories passed down from generations of enslaved persons
am i right with a?
Yes, A is correct. The government took records of slaves when they arrived and were ready to be sold to others for whom they work for, as I've said before, slaves were mAiNlY bought for getting taxed, working in plantations, or working for others. Paintings aren't as accurate considering the fact that they are painted according to what a person might or already knows. Writing about the life of an enslaved person doesnt give the accurate number of slaves. Stories passed down are are stories as it is
