Remember, if you didn't finish your four questions in class, finish them as homework. The questions are:
Foundations: Gender Questions
Directions: Answer the questions comparatively with analysis. For example: Women in Sub-Saharan Africa and Pre-Columbian America were in charge of economics in the marketplace. This is because in these matriarchal societies the women controlled the land and were thus in charge of those items produced from the land.
1.What part did women play in trade, business, or commercial activity?
2.What influence did a woman’s education have in determining job opportunities during this time period?
3.How would you characterize the difference in opportunities for elite and non-elite women?
4.How did women fit into the bureaucracy of these kingdoms or empires? Did this influence their political or legal rights?
