THREAD: Afro-Abkhazians

Afro-Abkhazians or Abkhazians of African descent were a small group of people in #Abkhazia. The ethnic origin of the AfroAbkhazian descent and how Africans arrived in Abkhazia is still a matter of dispute among experts.

📷The Baltimore Sun. Feb. 10, 1935 According to Sergey Arutyunov, in the late 18th-early 19th century an Ottoman ship travelling wrecked near the Abkhazian coast with slaves -probably from Sudan or Somalia- who were brought up for sale.
