In Piraeus, as in other Greek cities, people were trafficked. They were sold like animals in special markets. They sold foreigners taken prisoner, bought overseas or captured by pirates. The children of slaves also became slaves.

Wealthy Athenians bought slaves for the home: to clean the house, take care of children, and work on the house.

The owners of craft workshops also willingly bought slaves. They did the hardest and dirtiest work. For example, to carry coal, to inflate furs in the forge, to knead clay.

Wealthy farmers also bought slaves. They were instructed to collect olives, crush grapes with a press or feet, and cultivate arable land.

But the most difficult conditions were in the silver mines in the south of Attica. They worked deep underground, suffering from a lack of light air. The whole day from early morning and late evening, thousands of slaves mined precious ore.

The law forbade the killing of a slave. But otherwise it belonged to its owner, was his thing. A slave could not manage his labor, have a family, change his place of residence. In captivity, the slave often lost his name, received a nickname for the name of the tribe where he was from: Scythian, Thracian, Persian.

1. Piraeus - the main seaport

The Greco-Persian wars, which ended in 449 BC, led to the enrichment of the Greek cities that participated in the war, and, first of all, Athens. The Persians were forbidden to withdraw their fleet to the Aegean Sea, and since the Greeks had no other rivals, maritime trade began to develop again. Attica became the center of Greek maritime trade, where goods were brought from all over the Aegean Sea.

By the middle of the 5th c. BC. Piraeus, located in the southwest of Attica, became the main seaport of the Athenian polis. Piraeus and Athens were connected by a road 5-6 km long, surrounded on both sides by defensive structures called "Long Walls", built in case of an unexpected attack. The city itself had a favorable geographical position. It was located on a small peninsula, connected to the mainland by a narrow isthmus, which was defended by troops. All this provided Athens with protection from an unexpected attack both from land and from the sea.

There were three harbors in the port: two military and one commercial. Military harbors had narrow entrances, which were locked with stretched iron chains or ropes. From the land side, the military harbors were surrounded by walls, preventing not only the penetration of outsiders, but also protecting them from enemy spies. According to the laws of the Athens policy, only citizens, that is, people whose reliability was not in doubt, since their parents were also citizens, had the right to serve on warships. The port housed 400 warships called triremes. Each trireme had its own fixed place. The materials necessary for repairing ships were stored in the port warehouses: sails, ropes, oars, anchor chains. The poor people who came here from different regions of Attica worked tirelessly in the harbors. They performed the duties of rowers and sailors, worked in shipyards, participating in the repair of old ships and the construction of new ones. Often rich Athenians appeared in the harbors - farmers and merchants, each of whom, according to the laws of the Athenian policy, was obliged to build and equip a warship at his own expense.

2. The main selling commodity - slaves

The largest harbor of Piraeus became the center of trade. Ships arrived here from distant colonies, from Egypt and Carthage, as well as other regions of Africa. Fabrics and carpets, ivory, fish, grain and, of course, slaves were delivered to Piraeus. A merchant ship that arrived at the port was met by Athenian officials, whose duty it was to receive a duty from the merchant - a fee that allowed trading in Athens. Having completed a successful trade, the merchants bought local goods: olive oil, wine, handicrafts (clay vessels, statues, bracelets and silver goblets). Some merchants, seeing how briskly trade was going on, moved to Athens. Such merchants were called meteks, which in Greek means "migrant". Unlike Athenian citizens, the Meteki paid a special tax to the Athenian treasury, which gave them the right to reside in the city.

As a result of the development of trade, it was decided to build the city of Piraeus near the harbors. It was built under the direction of the Greek architect Hippodamus of Miletus. The plan of the city was considered very advanced for that time: the streets were wide and long and intersected at right angles. On the territory of the city there were taverns and inns where visitors could relax after a trip. Meteki owned their own houses. Residents and guests of the city had the opportunity to visit the theater, and they sold everything necessary for everyday life on the market square.

One of the most popular goods both in Athens and throughout Greece were slaves. Slaves were foreigners taken prisoner or bought by the inhabitants of the colonies from the local population, as well as sailors from ships captured by pirates. Slave labor was used in the household, in craft workshops, in harvesting and in silver mines. Slaves were priced according to their age, skill, and physical health. So, for example, a donkey driver cost 140 silver coins, called drachmas. A slave for work in the mines 180 drachmas, a jeweler - 360 drachmas. It is also known that a bull cost 50 drachmas, and a pig - 3 drachmas. At the same time, the Athenian family spent half a drachma a day on food.

And there were many of those on which you could only move by crawling, lying on your side. Thousands of people buried alive lived and worked in this stinking hell.

The walls of stone burrows peel off shoulders and chest. Small earthenware lamps, placed in occasionally carved niches, are the only points of light in pitch darkness, blink and choke from lack of oxygen.

There is no working day. There are working days. Only for a few hours, having dropped tools from weakened hands: a hammer, a wedge or a shovel, you can forget yourself in a heavy sleep. Sometimes water appears in the mines. Black and motionless, she seems like blood shed by thousands dead people. It is scooped out with clay vessels, which are passed from hand to hand.

    Give evidence of the exhausting, deadly labor of people in the silver mines.

    Who worked in the mines, why?

    What were the reasons for the armed uprisings of slaves in Ancient Greece?
