Trans-Saharan trade involved the exchange of goods, culture, and religion between sub-Saharan and North Africa, peaking from the 8th to the early 17th century. Caravans, often led by Berber guides, facilitated trade across the Sahara, exchanging commodities like gold, salt, and slaves, while also contributing to the spread of Islam in West Africa.
