Question

Where did the Gullah come from?

Answer 1

As slaves from South Carolina (especially the Charleston area) and Georgia; originally, from Western Africa.

Explanation:

The Gullah were/are descendants of West African slaves, mostly from the Angola region.

Following the abolishment of slavery, Gullah communities were established in the islands and coastal lowlands of South Carolina, Georgia, and North-Eastern Florida. These communities developed their own English-based creole language and maintained many of the West African cultural traditions.
