Raiding parties Individuals were kidnapped as they went about their daily lives. Raiding parties would hide outside a village and wait for a chance to ambush victims. The raiders took their captives away from their old homes as quickly as possible. African rulers tried, without success, to limit this terrible human theft. (c) 2011 Dorling Kindersley. All Rights Reserved.
