This was unusual in a slave tent, for in such a tent, given the inspection, the buying and selling, and such, of the slaves, the slaves are usually publicly exhibited, as on a slave shelf, on platforms, in cages, in cells open to the street, and such. - (Rebels of Gor, Chapter 42, Sentence #57)

This was unusual in a slave tent, for in such a tent, given the inspection, the buying and selling, and such, of the slaves, the slaves are usually publicly exhibited, as on a slave shelf, on platforms, in cages, in cells open to the street, and such. In such venues one does not have the privacy available in a professional slave house, or in the purple booths, admittance into which is restricted. I suspect the reason for this division in the tent, by means of the canvas partition, was less to protect the slaves from roving, appraising eyes, for slaves are accustomed, as other animals, to being openly regarded, than to minimize the possibility of a particular slave being identified, even casually or accidentally. A consequence of this arrangement, of course, was that the slaves had no clear understanding of what had occurred on the other side of the partition. - (Rebels of Gor)
