Sometimes hundreds of people lived and working on one plantation. The diagram on the next page shows how a plantation was called the "big House," where the planter and the planter's family lived The big house was built with high ceilings and thick walls to help it stay cool in the summer. Many enslaved people worked in the big house as " house slaves." All of cabins near the crop fields. The people on the plantation sometimes called this area " slave row " Life on the plantion depended on who you were.
