What roles or jobs were assigned to me women and children in the Cherokee tribe?

Answer 1

"Jobs" or "Roles" in the tribe were not assigned (per se). If a man was adept at herbs then he naturally became a healer, if another was good with a bow then he became a hunter. The culture and religion set out a balanced stance to all things, and this means the necessities of life as well. It was normal for men to hunt, fish and make war while women were the home makers; this was not by strict assignment though and men often helped with home chores and women with hunting (although not common). Children were raised by the grand-parents (modern term), while the man and woman was busy with life the old ones made perfect teachers for the children as they knew more and were unable to do harder work. (as an example of a balanced life)
