📅 1 Yanüari 1712 📍 Kòrsou

Governor Jeremias van Collen wrote that people from Loango were “hated and unsaleable,” using dehumanizing language that treated people as commodities. The quotation is evidence of colonial classification and market thinking, not a reliable description of the people themselves. The article gives only the year.
