Components of Plantations There were certain components that every Plantation had. The Great House- Home of the plantation owner and his family Kitchen building- Building were food was prepared by slaves for the Plantation owner and family. Slave Huts- Small cabins usually the size of one room where entire families would live and sleep. Fields where crops were grown. Other Buildings on a plantation (Known as Dependencies) Depending what type of crop was grown, there were additionally buildings that supported the crop. Ex. On a tobacco plantation there would be a building used to dry out the tobacco. On a cotton farm there would be small buildings where cotton was first cleaned. A building for a blacksmith etc..

Slave Songs/Spirituals There were three main types of slave songs or spirituals. 1. Religious songs 2. Work songs- Songs that gangs of slaves would sing in order to synchronize or coordinate their work. 3. Code songs- Songs that slaves sung in order to send messages to others: These messages could be simple: Warnings of where the overseer or Plantation owner is, announcing that the overseer or plantation owner is leaving or coming home etc… Communication of a planned escape.
