What did Greek women do when they couldn’t participate in the Olympic Games?

History
1 answer:
lawyer [7]3 years ago
6 0

Married women were not allowed to participate in, or to watch, the ancient Olympic Games. However, unmarried women could attend the competition, and the priestess of Demeter, goddess of fertility, was given a privileged position next to the Stadium altar.

When Ancient Greece Banned Women From Olympics, They Started Their Own ... Scholars are unsure of when the Heraean Games began.

Women in the ancient Greek world had few rights in comparison to male citizens. Unable to vote, own land, or inherit, a woman's place was in the home and her purpose in life was the rearing of children.

What caused the democratic party to split along sectional lines in the election of 1860?
Mkey [24]

Answer: D) The split occurred because Northern Democrats and Southern Democrats disagreed over how to deal with the issue of slavery.

Explanation:

Many (not all) Northern Democrats were strong abolitionists in favor of getting rid of slavery altogether. The Democrats of the South wanted to keep slavery as much of the Southern economy relied on it. So choice A is slightly related to this, but choice D is the better answer.
