Perhaps it was only during the dawn of the human race that women 11 stood
equal with men. At the beginning, I think both sexes shared equal responsibility
for the 12 of the race. Men and women shared in the hunt and in wars. Traces of
this ancient tradition can be found, for example, in the Achinese society in
North Sumatra, where women fought alongside men against the invading Dutch
colonial 13 during the Achinese wars in the 19th century. Some women even became
admirals of the Achinese fleet. Other cultures in other parts of the world have
had the 14 tradition.
Perhaps the invention of agriculture 15 the beginning of a differentiation
between men's and women's roles. Men continued to hunt, and women became food
gatherers and tended the field. Men 16 became agriculturists as well, when the
hunt no longer provided enough sustenance for the community. The biological fact
that women 17 children, and that each time they give birth they are 18 , for a
time, fully to play their role in the provision of sustenance and other work for
the family, slowly gave rise to more distinct men's and women's roles. Men who
are physically stronger 19 on such " natural" roles as warriors, and in most
cases men became chiefs, commanders, and kings. In the 20 of history, as
matriarchal systems became minorities in many cultures, the roles of men and
women in many societies became increasingly gender-oriented and
differentiated.
