Answer:

A. permitted slaves to buy their freedom

Step-by-step explanation:

Slaves were the lowest class in Athenian society, yet they were treated far more humanely than in most other Greek towns, according to various historical sources. Domestic slaves were next in line, with the possibility of buying their own freedom under certain conditions.
