Question
- primary source analysis: if you found a diary entry from a worker who said, \i am not allowed to leave this farm, but my lord protects me from the war outside,\ which system of labor did they likely live in?
encomienda
serfdom
trans - saharan trade
Brief Explanations
- Encomienda was a colonial labor system focused on extracting tribute, not tied to a farm with a "Lord" providing protection.
- Trans-Saharan Trade was a commercial network, not a labor system.
- Serfdom was a medieval European labor system where serfs were bound to a lord's land, could not leave freely, and relied on their lord for protection from external threats like war. This matches the diary entry description.
