A class summary says that every Egyptian worker was enslaved. Which revision is historically sound?
No form of coerced dependency existed at any time
Enslavement existed, but workers held varied legal and social statuses✓Ճիշտ պատասխան
Every farmer, artisan, official, and tomb worker was legally a chattel slave
Only foreign rulers could require labor from Egyptians
Բացատրություն
Enslaved and otherwise coerced people did exist, yet Egypt's labor force also included people with many other statuses and occupations. Denying slavery would ignore dependency and coercion, while labeling all work as chattel slavery collapses a complex society into one category.
