The Myths of Women in Roman Society

Drew Pearson: Three myths about Roman women have some basis in reality, but not entirely true. He says the council biblical one had mentality that a woman's place is in the home and a man's place is at work or in the church. Pearson: What I tried to do in my book is do a reset by focusing as much on dialogue with Roman historians,. To get the best picture possible of what life was actually like for men and women in the ancient world.
