Well, the question here is:

How was the emancipation of women in Celtic 'nations' during the time of EB? We know about the Hellenic peoples and Romans, but how about the Pahlava, Saka, Sauromatae, Suebi/Bastarnae, and the like?

He had trained to fight with it under a female teacher...

Hey!

Pay respect to the Great Master of Conversations! With a mere flick of my finger, countless conversations die out!

Anyways, back to the question. Emancipation might be a dubious word, but I was interested in what role they filled in society.

[Ayce]

Well, I don't know about them, but in Dacia it was: A woman's role is staying at home to take care of domestic things (the classic „la cratiţă”), though they were acknowledged to have a certain maternal wisdom that would be proved wright time after time („I told you so”)

I think the Parthian's view on Women was a mixture of steppic beliefs, and some settled ones.



Though, the smart view is, the ho should be in the kitchen.
