The ancient Greeks, whose respect for learning is evident in their art, politics, and philosophy, saw the value in educating children (see Greece: Ancient Greece). Wealthy Greeks added teachers to their households, often slaves from conquered states. At the height of the Roman Empire, during the first five centuries AD, Roman citizens also followed the practice of having teacher-slaves, usually Greeks. The English word pedagogue, a synonym for teacher, comes directly from the Greek word for slave.[1]
