Ghana - Western Intervention What’s special about this fort in Apram (Ah-prah-m) is that there is an underground tunnel that runs from the fort to the small island in the distance-that allowed slaves to be transported to the waiting ships. This was because slave traders could not reach the coast with boats. The tunnel was very narrow and dark and slaves stood the chance of suffocating to death.

Ghana - Western InterventionSlaves were forced to carve holes in this rock, located in a former slave camp in the Northern Region, to make their eating bowls. The bigger the hole, the more food a slave gets thereby increasing their chances of survival.
