Slaves comprised roughly 1% of the population, a proportion far less than the contemporary Greco-Roman world which relied on the labor of a large slave population.Slaves were classified into two categories: those who were privately owned, and those who were owned by the state.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
