Gold Trade

Gold Trade is a specialized form of trans-Saharan commercial exchange involving the systematic movement of gold from West African sources, particularly the Ghana and Mali empires, to North African and Mediterranean markets, distinguished by its centrality to pre-modern African economies and its role in facilitating broader economic and cultural interactions across the Sahara.
