What roles did ancient Rome woman have?

Answer 1

The upper class women in ancient Rome were the ones in charge of the households, the education of small children, and support of their husband in either his political or business career. The middle or working classed women had the same roles as her wealthy sisters, but also helped out in her husband's shop. There are wall paintings of women weighing out goods, helping her butcher husband sell meat, keeping the books, etc. From these paintings and from written works (when women were mentioned) we get the distinct impression that the role of women was a supportive one.
