Slaves would be there in Greece to perform daily work. There are 2 main ways somebody could become a slave:

1. If they were born into slavery (mother was already a slave).

2. If they were kidnapped in war or daily life and then sold into slavery.

Slaves were the lowest in society. Masters were allowed to do anything to their slaves, masters could torture their slaves, beat their slaves, even kill their slaves and get away with it.

Slaves could only be free if their master freed them. Once they were free, they were okay to leave, but they still had to come back every so often to thank their master.
