Resumo: | This paper examines the relations between Bahia and Costa da Mina at the dawn of the Second Slavery (c.1810-1831). Although scholars have focused their attention on the slave trade between Southeast Brazil and West-Central Africa, the Bight of Benin region in West Africa remained an important supplier of slaves. Beginning in 1815, Bahian slave traders developed strategies to circumvent British antislavery measures. At the same time, African slave ports organized trade operations to meet the demand for captives. The article also discusses the participation of African freedmen in the illegal slave trade. Although their involvement became more visible in the 1830s, prior to this they already present as members of the crew on slave ships or as small merchants, participating in transoceanic trading networks. Finally, the paper reassess the number of Africans trafficked from the Bight of Benin to Bahia. |

Apesar do foco historiográfico no Sudeste e no tráfico para a África Centro-Ocidental, a região do Golfo do Benim, na África Ocidental, continuou um importante mercado negreiro atlântico. A partir de 1815, os traficantes baianos desenvolveram estratégias para burlar a repressão antitráfico inglesa. Ao mesmo tempo, os portos africanos de embarque se organizaram para suprir a demanda baiana por cativos. Discute-se a participação de africanos libertos no comércio atlântico ilegal. Embora sua participação seja mais visível a partir da década de 1830, eles já compunham a tripulação das embarcações negreiras como pequenos negociantes e utilizando redes comerciais transoceânicas.
