@fayes.boek: The 1883 exhibition was far not the only time people were put on display in The Netherlands. Other examples include the Javanese village built in The Hague in 1898 and the Moroccan village (1906, 1912) at the Paleis voor Volksvlijt. ‘Human zoos’ became a widespread phenomenon in Europe and other parts of the Western world during the 19th and early 20th centuries. In these exhibitions people from Africa, Asia, the Americas and other parts of the world were brought to European cities and put on display.
