← Back to Dashboard
📅 10 June 2020 📍 French Guiana

The territorial authority’s final scheduled release contains marronnage notices from 1821 to 1848. The notices document people who resisted enslavement by leaving plantations and communities of forced labor. Their publication makes colonial surveillance records available for research that can foreground escape, kinship, and self-liberation.
