How were women's roles similar or different in the Hatti, Minoan and Mycenean civilizations?
What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary but correct responses should include: Women were considered differently in the different civilizations. Hatti was a man's world, with the masculine attitudes and values typical of a war state but women exercised some power as divers or curers. In the Minoan civilization, women were active all over the palace complexes, as priestesses, scribes, artisans, and participants in the dangerous, demanding game of bull-leaping, somersaulting between the horns of fighting bulls. In Mycenean, women were treated differently, and Mycenean artists usually showed women in domestic roles, with their children close at hand.
