•They wore jewelry, although perhaps it was not made of gold.
•There was no law that said they could not move up the social scale, or more likely, have their children move up the social scale by becoming a scribe, or a priest or priestess.

•Slaves who tried to escape or disobeyed their masters received harsh punishments.
•Despite being the property of their masters, slaves still had many rights. They could hold property, participate in business, marry a free man or women, and eventually even purchase their own freedom.
