It's still slavery themed, if not perpetrated by the usual suspects.

Slavey or just Slave is a translation of Awokanak,[2] the name given to Dene by the Cree "who sometimes raided and enslaved their less aggressive northern neighbors".

They were literally named slaves by their neighbours, and that is the name we have for them, nice.
