it was important to ancient Greeks because slaves did most of their work
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Sparta, Slaves known as Helots (which accounted for appx. 90% of the population) maintained the state while the Spartans would train for war. Also, the Helots served as a source of fear to motivate the Spartans to train so that the slaves would not rebel. An interesting side note, about once every year, the Spartans would massacre Helots to remind them of their place.
