Extract

The Literary Evidence for the use of fetters in the ancient world, both for prisoners of war and slaves, is fairly plentiful and has recently been examined by the writer in preparation for a study of the archaeological evidence for slavery in the ancient world (Thompson 1993). Three well-attested cases of the dedication of fetters in Greek history which have been noticed in passing by translators and commentators (e.g. Rouse 1902, 233), but which have not received in total the attention they deserve, are of particular interest.
