Chapter 6 - The African Burial Ground: A Global Assessment sums up the evidence discussed in the previous chapters 3 to 5 and proceeds forward to a comparative analysis. The variables relied on for this comparative discussion include: 1) the number of burials per chronological sequence; 2) the demographic profiles of the deceased populations; 3) the distribution of burials furniture; and finally, 4) health, pathologies and deceases.
