Mass Enslavements and their Political and Social Dimensions in the Peloponnesian War

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This article analyzes the numerous instances of mass enslavement that occurred during the Peloponnesian War. Adopting a diachronic historiographical approach and considering the preceding Pentekontaetia, this study examines the processes and patterns of mass enslavements within the context of the belligerents’ strategies during the Peloponnesian War. Consequently, this study engages with two distinct historiographical fields: the historiography of the Peloponnesian War and the study of ancient slavery.
