Could slaves become free in ancient Rome? If so, how?
Answered by Bot
Yes, slaves could become free in ancient Rome. Slaves could be freed by their masters through a process called manumission. This could be done through a legal ceremony or by simply declaring the slave free. Slaves could also buy their freedom, either with their own money or with money provided by a benefactor. Finally, slaves could be freed by a magistrate or by the emperor.
