Well, material refers to anything substantial or, more precisely, made of matter. What this person is saying is that it is our interactions with the material world that drive us to do certain things, rather than our interactions with spiritual worlds. This is arguable, but the largest contributing factor to wars of all kinds throughout history have been access to resources, particularly food and water. It doesn't get much more "material" than drinking and eating. 

Now religious wars like The Crusades occurred, if taken at face value, as a result of a spiritual decree. In actuality though, the "reclamation" of the Holy Land was again a material concern because even though the land was considered "holy" the whole endeavor was, after all, about occupying space.

According to the text, what are the differences between the traditional form of slavery practiced in Africa and plantation slave
aleksley [76]

Answer:

The distinction between the traditional form of slavery practiced in Africa and plantation slavery practiced in the Americas was the way slaves were treated in these two dimensions.

Explanation:

"West African Society at the Point of European Contact" is an article from the collection of the US history website. In the article, the writer shares about the West African lifestyle and the prosperity enjoyed by people before the arrival of the Europeans.

The writer shares differences between the traditional form of slavery practiced in West Africa and the plantation slavery practiced in America. He states that the slavery practice in Africa had a long history. People who were captured after the end of the war were taken as slaves but they were treated as humans, eventually becoming a part of the family. <u><em>The children of slaves were not considered property to be sold or bought. Many times some slaves gained high honors in the communities</em></u><em>. </em>

Conversely, <u><em>plantation slavery was based on race</em></u>. Slaves in the plantation slavery were treated inhumanly, inferior, and considered property rather than humans.
