Where did slaves sit in social hierarchy in ancient Egypt?
In principle, at the bottom. However, the position of slaves in ancient Egypt was much different from that of slaves in Greece and Rome, who were 'unfree' and almost completely at the mercy of their owners. Egyptian slaves were people with only 'lessened' civil rights and it was not so much the person of the slave that was sold, but his work capacity. Slavery in ancient Egypt was basically a situation where you got the labor of a person and its proceeds at no other cost than what you might call room and board. In almost all cases, this 'slavery' (for want of a better word) lasted for only a limited period, after which the slave regained his full civic rights again. Lifelong slavery did only exist as a punishment, like being condemned to a life sentence of 'hard labor' in more modern times.
Slave on the run?
