David Eltis serves as an Adjunct Professor in the Department of History at Emory University, where he focuses on the early modern Atlantic World, particularly slavery and migration patterns. His distinguished career spans several decades with significant contributions to understanding the transatlantic slave trade through quantitative and historical analysis. Dr. Eltis earned his BA from Durham University (1962), BEd from Dalhousie University (1965), MA from the University of Alberta (1969), and PhD from the University of Rochester (1979). His educational background provided the foundation for his specialized research in economic history and the Atlantic slave trade. His research primarily centers on the early modern Atlantic World, with particular emphasis on slavery systems, the transatlantic slave trade, and migration patterns (both coerced and free). Eltis has pioneered quantitative approaches to studying the slave trade, developing extensive databases that have transformed scholarly understanding of the scale, structure, and economic dimensions of this historical phenomenon. His work examines the demographic impact of slavery, the economic forces driving the trade, and the experiences of enslaved Africans. Eltis's publications demonstrate a consistent focus on quantitative analysis of the transatlantic slave trade, with increasing emphasis on digital humanities approaches in his later work. His research has evolved from broader economic analyses of slavery's role in Atlantic development to more specific studies of individual regions, trade routes, and the experiences of liberated Africans. The integration of database methodologies with traditional historical analysis represents a significant contribution to the field. British Trevor Reese Memorial Prize (for Economic Growth and The Ending of the Transatlantic Slave Trade ) Frederick Douglass Prize John Ben Snow Prize Wesley-Logan Prize (for The Rise of African Slavery in the Americas ) John T. Hubbell Prize for best article in Civil War History (2008) W.E.B. Dubois Medal from Harvard (2025) Dr. Eltis has received significant research funding, including a two-year NEH grant for his collaborative project on the origins of Africans in the transatlantic slave trade. This project analyzes records of 67,000 Africans liberated from slave vessels in the 19th century. He serves as co-editor of the influential Transatlantic Slave Trade database at www.slavevoyages.org, which represents one of the most comprehensive digital resources on this historical phenomenon. While specific student mentorship isn't detailed in the available information, his extensive publication record suggests he has likely advised numerous graduate students throughout his career. As principal investigator of the NEH-funded project analyzing liberated African records and co-editor of the Transatlantic Slave Trade database, Eltis leads significant collaborative research efforts. These projects involve international teams of scholars working with historical records from multiple archives to reconstruct the experiences and origins of enslaved Africans. His work bridges traditional historical research with digital humanities methodologies, creating resources that benefit scholars across multiple disciplines.
