Athenian slaves performed a variety of jobs, primarily in domestic, agricultural, and industrial settings. Many worked as household servants, cooks, and caretakers for children, while others labored in fields, farms, or vineyards. In urban areas, slaves also contributed to craft production, such as pottery and metalwork, and some were employed in mines. Overall, their roles were essential for the economy and daily life of Athens.
