Large farming estates worked by enslaved people were common in many parts of the world, particularly in the southern United States before the Civil War. Enslaved people were forced to work long hours under harsh conditions, with no rights or pay. This system of forced labor was a brutal and inhumane practice that had a profound impact on the history and development of these regions.
There was not a name for a farming estate which used slave labour. Slaves worked on large landed estates. These were called fundi (plural of fundus) or latifundia (plural of latifundium, "spacious" + fundus, "farm, estate"). The name remained after these estates stopped using slave labour.
Slaves who worked in farming estates were farm slaves. The Romans had many farm slaves. In antiquity slaves were war captives. They were civilians who were captured and enslaved when a town or a land was defeated as part of the spoils of war. The majority of Roman slaves worked on the large farming estates. In other historical periods and part of the world slaves were (and is some areas still are) captured in slave raids.
