The Roles Of Ancient Roman Women by Noah Carpenter

 The tales of an Ancient Roman Women were not always happy tales. Whether you were rich or poor, you were constantly working. You were constantly talked down too and men paid no heed to your thoughts.



 If you were poor your day began early because you had to walk up with your husband and tend to your fields. You would have to gather food to cook for your family and then you would need to wash the dishes that which your family just ate on. While this is all happening you need to tend to and discipline your children and clean the house. Don’t forget, you are alone during this process because your husband needs to work throughout the day. If he gets home and what he finds is not to his liking disciplinary action is sure to have followed.



 If you were rich your day began whenever your body felt it had sufficiently rested, but as to your surprise there is still much hard work for these women to do. Their job is to plan events to take place when their husband arrives home from work. These include parties, dinners, or other events. The women will plan out the event with her servant. While it is being set up she will be pampered by her servants. Their children are usually tended to by their servants as well.



If you were a women regardless of your class you never had any time off. Whether you're planning parties or keeping your kids out of trouble you're still working. Men have trouble understanding all the work women have to do everyday even today.



The Roles of Ancient Roman Men By: Daniel Cannata

Roman men were the most distinguished people in ancient Rome. The men were the masters of the house and the family. Rich men had roles very different from the poor men of Rome. Rich men began their day by eating a breakfast of bread, cheese, honey, and water. Before leaving, they would pray at their household shrine.

Rich men would then begin their work. This could consist of writing letters, meeting friends, going to the forum, or perhaps even nothing but relaxing. They would then maybe take a nap, get a haircut, and finish their work for the day.



At night all Roman men went to the public bathes then home and had dinner.



Poor men began their day at the crack or dawn. They wouldn’t eat much in the morning because they were poor.



For the rest of the day the would work at their shop or on the farm.



After dinner, poor men would go to sleep so they would be ready to wake up early and work the next day.
