Book Synopsis The Archaeology of Greek and Roman Slavery by : F.H. Thompson
Book excerpt: Slavery is a word heavy with emotional and political overtones - to be owned by another person and treated as a commodity is the ultimate injustice. This book covers topics as diverse as the source of slaves, the nature of the slave trade, and the use of slave-labour in agriculture, mines and quarries, corn and weaving mills, and water-lifting.
