The Black Rock being revealed as a slave ship raises some interesting questions. From what era did it come? Looking at the ship it appears to be a multi-masted steamer from the late 19th or early 20th Century, when ships used a combination of sails and coal powered engines. It is way too modern to be from the "classical" period of African slave trade, which was mostly on the west coast of Africa and had been outlawed by most countries by the early 19th century (The US in 1808 I believe). According to Locke it was probably headed from the East Coast of Africa to a mining colony. There is still slavery practiced in remote areas of Africa but one wonders if they are exporting to the Indies. Also, if the ship is truely over 100 years old, how did a wood and steel vessel survive the heat and humidity for that long? It is true that older vessels have been kept in use in poorer areas of the world well past their primes (Galveston, TX features the "Elissa" which was an early 20th century sailing vessel that had been used as late as the 80's as a cigarette smuggling boat in the Adriatic). I would guess that the Black Rock probably wrecked sometime during the 1930's - 1950s.

De porstmouth solian salir barcos llenos de convictos hacia australia, que era como una colonia-carcel. Black Rock esta en la costa de Porstmouth
De nada
Nigeria???
Alguien ya habló de eso, y dijeron que Nigeria no caía exactamente en esas coordenandas. Lo dijo Curros en este post http://cine.eol.us/forum/viewtopic.php?t=243358&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=165[/list]O sino, probad a poner "los numeros magicos" como coordenadas de latitud longitud (grados minutos y segundos). Ya me contareis que sale
