The Traditional Historiography Has Either Ignored The Positive Role Of Women Or Portrayed It As Insignificant. The Fundamental Contributions Of Women To Socio-Economic Life Have Not Been Fully Brought About. The Study, It Is Hoped, Will Make A Useful Contribution To Women`S History As We May Note That In Several Aspects The Status Of Women Today Does Not Seem To Have Changed Much From The Study Period; Particularly The Importance Of Gender Roles, Status Of Widows And The Victimization Of Women.
