A quick definition of homo:

Homo means a male human or a member of humankind, whether male or female. It can also mean a slave, a vassal, a retainer, or a servant. In the past, different types of homos existed, such as homo francus, a freeman in England, or homo Romanus, a Roman inhabitant of Gaul and other former Roman provinces. Some homos were bound to serve a church or a king, while others were free and lawful men. One type of homo, called homo trium litterarum, meant a thief.

A more thorough explanation:
