The raid on the Bay of Naples occurred in 1544 when Algerians captured the Bay of Naples and enslaved 7,000 Neapolitans.
In 1544, Algerian corsairs sailed into the Bay of Naples and raided it. They then took an estimated 7,000 Neapolitan slaves.
The number of slaves taken by the Algerians drove the price of slaves so low that it was said "you could swap a Christian for an onion". Moreover, it was said to be "raining Christians in Algiers".
