Chapter 7. Nineteenth century European references to the African Diaspora in the
Arabian Peninsula.

Study of the African Diaspora is now a dynamic field in the development of new methods and approaches to African history. Unlike the transatlantic diaspora, east wards African migrants have received little attention. Studies on communities of African origin in Asia have increased, and some have restored the gallantry and glory that once belonged to some African migrants to Asia. This book brings together the latest research on African diaspora in Asia with case studies about India and the Indian Ocean islands.
