The wives were supposed to have children, if they could. If not her husband was given a handmaid, and the wives were basically just there to maintain the household, that was pretty much it. Also, the wives of poorer commanders had to do everything themselves, aka bear children, and do the job of the marthas.
Women had no rights and were mainly mothers, wives, and helped with the farm.
yes,there roles are to be honest to each other and live good lives and be espectful to each other
Conjugal roles are the roles of the man and woman [husband and wife] in the home. There are two different types of conjugal roles that people can have: * When husbands and wives share housework and childcare, decisions and leisure time they have joint conjugal roles. * When husbands and wives do not share housework and childcare, decisions and leisure time they have segregated conjugal roles. Hope this helps.
Greek mythology is the lore of the ancient people of Greece; there were separate city-states and kingdoms that had differing lore, this is why "Zeus" had so many affairs, because the wife of the local god became the lover/wife of "Zeus" in later myths. Zeus and Poseidon are known to have many 'wives' or 'brides' according to mythology for that reason; most were later regarded as affairs between the god and goddess/mortal.
