Yoruba people in the Atlantic slave trade : ウィキペディア英語版 | Yoruba people in the Atlantic slave trade The Yoruba people contributed a cultural and economic influence upon the Atlantic slave trade during its run from approximately 1400 until 1900 CE. ==Oyo Empire==
From 1400 onward, the Oyo Empire's imperial success made the Yoruba language a ''lingua franca'' almost to the shores of the Volta.〔Stride & Ifeka 1971, p. 302.〕 Toward the end of the 18th century, the Oyo army was neglected as there was less need to conquer.〔Oliver & Atmore 2001, p. 95.〕 Instead, Oyo directed more effort towards trading and acted as middlemen for both the Trans-Saharan and Trans-Atlantic slave trade.〔 Europeans bringing salt arrived in Oyo during the reign of King Obalokun.〔Stride & Ifeka p. 292〕 Thanks to its domination of the coast, Oyo merchants were able to trade with Europeans at Porto Novo and Whydah.〔Stride & Ifeka 1971, p. 293.〕 Here the Oyo Empire's captives and criminals were sold to Dutch and Portuguese buyers.〔Smith 1989, p. 31.〕
