Description and historical importance of Athenian women
leva [86]

Answer: The woman took care of the family and the house.

Explanation:

When we talk about women's position in Athenian society, that position was not of significant historical importance. The community in Athens was patriarchal organized. The woman mostly spent time in the house, taking care of the children, and doing housework. That a woman did not have a significant influence in society is also shown by the fact that a woman, even if she was born an Athenian, did not have the right to make political decisions. Even at the time of the birth of Athenian democracy, women did not influence any decision-making, nor did they have the right to vote.
