[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9515835, member: 2844"]That depends on the part of Africa this came from. From the early 1600s on the Dutch had part of the Gold Coast, called Dutch Guinea, and from the mid 1600s the Cape Colony. The Dutch weren't the first on the Gold Coast though, the Portuguese had a colony there from 1482 until the Dutch captured it. Do you know where the other African items came from? Maybe all were from the same region?[/QUOTE]
