- Slaves & Freedmen
- Someone who used to be a slave and was set free by their master was called a libertus. Slaves were sometimes freed and usually because of particularly good service and as a sign of friendship and respect but also once their master had died if it said in his will to free the slaves they would become a libertus. However, slaves could not be set free until they were at least 30 years old and no more than 100 slaves (this could be less in a smaller household) could be freed in a will.

- An ex-slave would have to regularly pay his respects to his master, early in the day, help and support him in any way he could and work for him for affixed number of days each year. A libertus would also change his name (e.g. if his slave-name was Felix and his master's name was Lucius Caecilius Iucundus, he would change his name to Lucius Caecilius Felix).
- Freed women were called a liberta and usually married their former master. They also had less opportunities and privileges than a libertus.
