This question just popped in my mind were their any- cause the lying apes who believe in that fake bullshivt Afrocentrism claim that their was- I know no way in hell there was  thanks Yes there were. Without question. First under the form of souvenirs brought by explorers, and after, brought as slaves (late medieval). Slaves in the sense of domestic worker, not to work on the field under the beating of a whip. A black housekeeper/servant was an exclusivity.  There are storyboards and triptychs displayed in a churches and a courthouse in Antwerp, Amsterdam and Reims, showing Lords and their black slaves.
