It is impossible to give you a date for this because slavery was a known institution from ancient times.

Of more significance is the current general worldwide adoration of the institution of slavery which should be seen as positive step in the development of the global human consciousness. The owership of humans; was autherized, in the Third Book of Moses: Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall beof the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids. Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession. And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: [ Leviticus25:44-45-46.] So amongst the Judaic faiths, it has been a practiced for over three thousand years.
