Is the phrasing "think about how it could have got there" grammatically correct? I thought it should be "have gotten". I'm not a native speaker, hence a question and not a definite statement.

wiktionary: gotten

for the slave trade one, can you make "Columbian exchange" or "atlantic triangle" one of the answers?
