What was the role of a medieval slave?

1st Answer:esne was a medieval lowely laborer or slave this shows that a slave would sevre someone.2nd Answer:In modern English, the medieval slaves are called slaves. The Latin word, sometimes used in the Middle Ages was servus.The serfs, however, were a different group and were not slaves. The difference was that slaves could be bought and sold, and were essentially prisoners kept for labor. By contrast the serfs could not be bought and sold, and apart from the fact that they did not have a right to move off the manor where they lived, they were rather free. Serfs had rights, including the right to live and farm on the manor, and a right to be protected against war, crime, and famine. The rights of slaves were more limited, and in some places pretty much did not exist.Slavery was banned in England by laws of William the Conqueror, in 1066, and Henry I, in 1102. Serfdom continued, however, until after the Black Death in the 1350s.


What factors led to the first civilizations?

Instead of hunting and gathering people discovered how to grow food and farm. Soon people built houses and started living around each other. More people meant they could trade and others could do other things rather than just farm. Finally, people were fed so they could look to do things like art, music, and government.


In medieval times could a peasant get a job?

Yes, peasants could get jobs. Serfs had jobs guaranteed to them, along with places to live. They worked farms, called manorial estates, and were not allowed to leave. While on the farm, the rent included a part of the crop, work, or money. There was time left over, if the serf wanted to do something else he could. Such work might be an advance over farming, and could include running a mill, weaving, making pottery, or working as a cook or servant in the manor itself. If a serf left the land where he worked, and stayed off for a year, he was considered free. The up side of this was freedom, and the down side was loss of the guaranteed home and job on the farm. As a free person the peasant could get a job and work in the country or town.
