GARCIA, Claudia. Enslaved women diseases in late colonial Córdoba. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2024, vol.32, n.1, e98207.  Epub 25-Ene-2024. ISSN 1806-9584.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2024v32n198207.

The arrival of Europeans in the New World stimulated the slave trade. It is estimated that close to 11 million people were brought from Africa to our continent during the centuries in which the slave trade developed and that approximately one-third of those enslaved who entered Spain-colonized America were women. In this work, we will describe, based on the survey and analysis of different documentary sources, some of the diseases most often experienced by enslaved women who inhabited Córdoba, currently a province of the República Argentina, in the last decades of the colonial period and the beginning of the independent stage, investigating the factors that put their health at risk.

Palabras clave : Enslaved Women; Disease; Córdoba; Late colonial.
