Slave trade has been around for thousands of years. The ancient Greeks, Romans,Egyptians, pirates, and others traded, sold, and captured people to sell as slaves. The African slave trade was just an extension of slavery and had also been in existence for thousands of years. Slavery still exists today and Isis has produced a manual on the capture and treatment of slaves. Many are women and children in areas that they have taken. In Southeast Asia there are women who are sex slaves and children who are bought and sold for sex.
