Yes, Greek women were allowed to participate in religious rites and festivals. Religious rituals gave women an important role in public life. There were female priesthoods, such as the the priestesses of Athena Polias in Athens, Demeter and Kora in Eleusis, Hera in Argos and the oracles. All oracles in the Greek world were women. They were the priestesses of Apollo, the oracular god.
