OTHER STATUS DISTINCTIONS WITH PUNISHMENTS Enslavement was a penalty imposed on an alien who resided in Athens without being registered as a metic or paying the metics’ tax. The male citizen could legitimately act outside of institutional channels to do almost anything to his own slaves. A citizen could also beat any slave caught stealing, even if the slave belonged to someone else. The male citizen had a similarly far-ranging power over the female members of his household and was expected to punish the women in his household when necessary. Male citizens who wished to punish fellow male citizens needed to proceed through the court system except in those instances in which justiable homicide was an acceptable response.
