Jenini was a slave camp in Ghana during Samory Toure’s reign c. 1870 - 1895.[1] Archaeological excavations at Jenini began in July 2004, with a goal to better understand the lives of its enslaved occupants.[1] Jenini remains a salient reminder of Africa's involvement in the trans-Atlantic slave trade.[2]
