From England - To Barbados - To Carolina, 1670-1700: The Founding of Charles Town and Recovering The Material Culture of First Generation Carolinians is a look at the social history of the first colonists at Charles Town, with an overall history of colonization efforts by Europeans in the Atlantic Region. The book centers around the social and material culture of the English-Barbadians utilizing 50 surviving probate inventories and a sampling of wills.The first 30 years 1670-1700 provide a unique snapshot of the English and other European peoples that colonized what would later be Charleston, South Carolina. A case is made that it was purely environment and topographic reasons that led to massive slave imports into the colony around 1700 - not in 1670 as has been widely claimed by historians in the past.
