dec 1, 1439 BC - Egyptian slaves

Description:

Forced labor were conscripted for projects such as military expeditions, mining and quarrying, and construction projects for the state.

These slaves were paid a wage, depending on their skill level and social status for their work.

Many slaves were house servants, gardeners, farm labor, musicians and dancers of excellent talent, scribes (those that kept written documents), and accountants.

Records show that early Egypt was influenced by other civilizations in the area.
