The concept of soul was very important before the 19th century , more important than it is today. Not having a soul would make you closer to the animal , albeit not identical. For instance in Paris , there were big colonial expositions where people from Senegal , New Caledonia etc.. came to show themselves in front of Parisian people, they were paid to act like crazy barbarians for hours before the eyes of people , the expositions had names such as "Le Canibale" etc..It was just manipulation to make the public and christian opinion of Europe to think that indigenous people really deserve forced colonization from the mighty white.
