Undoubtedly there's quite a misunderstanding in respect to the origin of these troops, and will remain a myth. The lack of genuine and reliable annals especially in the Egyptian archives unequivocally could have solved this matter. As far as I know, and from constant reading and investigation into the matter did not come across any notion which indicates that these troops where "Slaves", another verification that they were not a slaves, is how they were been rewarded upon them return from this battle. Sure this could refute the theory that they were slaves.
