Slaves in Athens and Sparta did not have a lot of rights. They where not even allowed to go to religious festivals and they had to ask their master's permission to even go to the bathroom!
Rome and Athens relied on slaves for most of the work - farming, grazing, household, construction, mining. Perhaps two thirds of the populations were slaves. Sparta was different - it had serfs, people who were free but tied to their land, who had to deliver half their produce to the state. Athens and Sparta both used their slaves/serfs as light infantry in war.
