Did the Viking woman have any rights?
Viking women may have had more equal rights than any other culture at that time. Women played an important role in Viking society since the men were away for weeks and months at a time raiding other far off settlements. The women maintained the villages, made cloth and clothing, planted crops and cared for their families on the home front while the men were away. (In some cases, women also became warriors.)Viking women were married as young as twelve and generally had no say in the marriage but became an equal partner within the marriage. A Viking woman didn't become a full member of her husband's family when she married. She didn't become his property. She retained some autonomy because she continued to be a member of her own family.If her husband mistreated her or her children or failed to provide for her and her children she could divorce HIM and return to her family. She took her dowry and her pre-marital property with her. She only had to declare twice in front of witnesses that she was divorcing her husband: once at the front door and once at the marriage bed. Her infant children remained with her after a divorce. Older children were split up between the families.Viking women had more legal rights than most women in Europe at that time. Children were also protected by law and retained rights of inheritance after a divorce.
