Where do the Slave’s Living Quarters Begin?
What we do know!!!What we do know!!!The larger huts > 12 meters in width.
The smallest huts < 3 meters wide.
You will have to walk 20 meters into the village before you arrive at any slave’s living areas.
The distance from the entrance of the settlement to
the entrance of the back hut is 60 meters.
