Volume and Direction of the Atlantic Slave Trade, 1650s-1870s: Appendix 2. New Estimates of Arrivals, 1650s - 1860s.

This dataset provides estimates of captive arrivals in the Americas by region and by decade, 1650s to 1860s, using Markov Chain Monte Carlo method. Calculations performed by Bowen Yi, June - August 2015. One of five appendices to the source article. Table 2A presents results of MCMC analysis of captive arrivals.

本数据集基于马尔可夫链蒙特卡洛（Markov Chain Monte Carlo，MCMC）方法，对1650年代至1860年代按区域及十年期统计的美洲被俘人员抵美数据开展估算。本次计算由Bowen Yi于2015年6月至8月完成。本数据集为源论文的五个附录之一。表2A展示了该类被俘人员抵美情况的MCMC分析结果。
