I'm sorry, but I've got a bit of a problem with all those "slaves" (sorry if I'm a spoiler right now, I really don't mean to, and if anyone thinks I'm a winer, feel free to tell me to zip it *lol*). But it's actually so that even egyptologists today are still not sure if ancient Egypt had "slaves" as we know them from Greece and Rome, and there has NEVER been found ANY proof that there were slave-markets. Servants were always payed, and if they were not "free" it was only relative and they got payed with a roof above their heads and food to eat. The workers who build the pyramids probably weren't slaves either, but normally payed workers. I'm sorry but I just think all tis slave-stuff is a bit too hard for our ancient Egypt at the GH...!
