Roman women gained several rights over time. Here are the relevant rights from your list that Roman women obtained:
- **Own property**: Roman women were allowed to own and manage their own property, especially during the later periods of Roman history.
- **Run their own businesses**: While it was less common, some Roman women could also operate their own businesses, especially if they were freedwomen or had certain privileges.
The other options, such as serving in the Senate and voting for officials, were rights not granted to women in ancient Rome. Roman women did not have the right to vote or hold political office. They were also typically not able to head their own households in the legal sense, as the paterfamilias (male head of the family) had significant authority.
So the correct selections are:
- Own property
- Run their own businesses
