Quiz: Finding historical evidence Questions can be answered with evidence available in the datasets and online repositories linked in the course page at Aula Global.

And how many in Portuguese ships in the 19th century? 3 Which USA state had the largest share of slaves in its total population in 1860? 4 Of the population 10 years and older registered as engaged in an occupation in the United States in 1870, how many worked in agriculture? What was the agricultural share of employment in Georgia and in Massachusetts?...
