Slaves in Virginia were legally considered property from the time of arrival in the colony in the early 17th century. The legal status of slavery was further entrenched with the passage of laws such as the Virginia Slave Codes in the 17th and 18th centuries.
The slave codes changed in 1865 when the 13th amendment was ratified. Slave codes were laws that restricted African Americans behaviors due to the fear of rebellion.
The Slave Codes of 1705 in Virginia declared that slaves were considered as "chattel" or private property. These laws established the legal foundation for treating slaves as commodities that could be bought, sold, and inherited. Additionally, these codes restricted the rights and freedoms of enslaved individuals.
