Women of Egypt had power if they were fertile, they were considered successful. Women in Egypt could also become pharoah, if they were married into it and the previous pharoah had no sons, but daughters.

Women in ancient Egypt had a lot more freedom than those in most other ancient civilizations. They had the right to own and sell their lands. Some of those with education were priestesses, had jobs in administration, were supervisors, treasurers or even occassionally advisors to the pharaohs.

Those of the lower classes could be hairdressers, weavers, dancers, mourners or prostitutes.

Women also took care of children and the household, and would work on farms if they were of that class.
