Slavery in Ancient Greece

"The watchman led Argo and the rest of his compatriots through the front gate and down the walkway that led towards the main house. The walkway was a dirt road with a length of about one hundred yards before arriving at Kaiaphas’ home. Rows of grape vines and fields of wheat stretched out on either side of the dirt road. It was a beautiful afternoon. The sky was blue and cloudless overhead and there was a cool, salty breeze now coming in off the water that was less than a mile away.
Zammie noticed the dozens of men and women scattered amongst the grape vines. They were working hard picking clusters of grapes and putting them into large baskets. He wondered how many of them had been separated from their family like Argo’s sister."
