Description

Explore the lives of women in antiquity with this detailed monograph from Routledge. This academic study investigates how Greco-Roman Egyptian society perceived women's bodies and reproductive functions. By examining understudied areas like coming of age, menstruation taboos, and birth rituals, the book provides a window into the daily existence of women in this era. This work uses both historical and archaeological sources to investigate the medical, legal, and religious aspects of reproduction. Readers will learn how the social status of women and newborn children shifted from the Dynastic period through to the Greco-Roman period. It is an essential resource for students and historians interested in the intersection of medicine, the body, and social structures in ancient Egypt.
