Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - No, it was done mostly by the Legionaries themselves, the armies didn't travel with all that many slaves. Most all Roman fortifications and siege works were soldier constructed.
I stand corrected after reading the article they did use Jewish POWs in the construction of the ramp.
