They sailed, hunted, and traded. All of these activities took the men away from home. Men enjoyed wrestling, horseback riding, and the Olympic Games. Men had parties in which the women were not allowed to attend. ||

 The women: Were responsible for cooking, cleaning, gardening and watching little ones. Also wealthy women hardly ever left the house because they had so much work to do.

The children: Stayed on the women’s side of the house till they were about seven years of age.
