A Brief History Of The Origins Of Slavery: Chapter 1

When Did Slavery Start? The Origins of Slavery. The history of slavery is as long as the history of humanity and spans almost every single culture and ethnicity. As long as humans have had civilisation, we’ve had ways to subjugate each other. Basically, we all suck. Welcome to A Day In History! Long before the ancient Greeks, Romans, Persians and other civilisations, were even older ones, with few surviving records. Like the Mesopotamians. This civilization gives us our first known records of slavery in law, although even these glimpses of over 4000 years into the past suggest that slavery is much older than the written proof we have today. Fragments of other texts have mentioned slaves in these civilizations, and earlier ones, but the legal records we’ll be looking at in this video are the ones from where we can distinguish the most information. So, what are the first recorded instances of slavery? Let’s take a look and don’t forget to check out part 2 for a brief timeline of slavery all the way from these ancient records to modern day. The First Evidence of Slavery: Pre-Written Records In early civilisations, there are legal codes that include some of the first written, recorded instances of slavery, all of which are from different, but similar periods in Ancient Mesopotamia. The main five we’ll be looking at are The Code of Ur-Nammu, The Code of Eshnunna, The Code of Lipit-Ishtar, The Code of Hammurabi and The Code of Nesilim. Each was inscribed on ancient tablets, or pieces of stele and contain multiple mentions and legal proceedings to do with slaves, suggesting it was a key part of the ancient civilisation’s workings and existed long before the records we have since uncovered suggest. #slavery #history #whiteslavery #modernslavery #mesopotamia #fallofconstantinople #constantinople #historychannel Timecode: 00:00 Start 01:14 The First Evidence of Slavery: Pre-Written Records 01:57 Number One: The Code of Ur-Nammu 04:12 Number Two and Three: The Code of Eshnunna and The Code of Lipit-Ishtar 06:03 Number Four: The Code of Hammurabi 07:52 Number Five: The Code of Nesilim DISCLAIMER: All materials in these videos are used for entertainment purposes and fall within the guidelines of fair use.
