είλωτες
Τhe word "eelotes" means "slaves", term particualrly used in ancient Sparta in ancient Sparta. In ancient Athens they were called "doulee"(enslaved people).
The full translation is:
Τη γη τη δούλευαν οι είλωτες, ή οι δούλοι που είχαν στην ιδιοκτησία τους οι πόλεις-κράτη.
I think "city/states" should actually be either "city/state" or "cities/states"; both in the same number.
