The Ancient Egyptian civilization spans more than 3.000 years, and the roles of males and females changed considerably during the different eras of this civilization.

For example, in the early dynastic periods women were allowed into priesthood (and even the position of Pharaoh, like queen Hatshepsut), but by the era of the New Kingdom (ca 1550 BC) this was exclusively reserved for men. In the Graeco-Roman period, women again had access to clerical positions until the rise of Christianity.
