what was a right that women had during the roman empire

1 answer

During the Roman Empire, women had certain rights, though they were limited compared to men. One notable right was the ability to own property. Women could inherit land and manage their own finances, which allowed them some degree of economic independence. Additionally, women had the right to engage in legal contracts and could represent themselves in court, although their opportunities for significant legal autonomy were constrained by societal norms and gender roles. In some cases, particularly among the upper class, women also wielded considerable influence, often through their relationships with powerful men.
