Slavery began the very moment that man began. All Ancient societies had slaves that they took in war, raids, bought, and sold. Greek pirates had a very big trade in slavery and the Romans when they conquered a city or area took slaves. The men in the colosseum were all slaves taken as war prisoners and forced to fight as gladiators. Slavery has not gone away. There are still people who are slaves. Many are young women and children who are sex slaves in modern societies.
