How many slaves were killed a day?

Estimates of the number of enslaved individuals who died each day during the transatlantic slave trade vary widely, but it is believed that thousands died annually due to harsh conditions, disease, and brutality. On average, during the Middle Passage, it is estimated that about 15% of enslaved people died, which could translate to hundreds of deaths daily over the course of the trade. However, specific daily death rates can fluctuate based on factors such as the time period, location, and conditions of the slave ships. Overall, while exact figures are difficult to determine, the overall toll was devastating.
