Lady and Gentlement ! May I introduce Dr. Hollet's new book for you in this conference today .
It says about the women's lives 5,000 years ago. According to her research , the women 's lives were two types of society . There were agriculture and military. The women's lives were different in each society.
In military , women generally had a very low status . They used to stay at home to take care children and to do house works, when the men went to fights . The King gave only men a top priority of social activity. They had much higher power than women status.
In contrast , in agriculture , many women had political power in ancient Egypt . Cleopatra is a famous example , well-known all over the world of her ancient Crete. They also used to own land. Today there are many paintings of powerful women and in Egyptiant documents in international museums . Women almost had much powerful than men in ancient Crete . They used to make decisions of business .
But this was changed when the society became involved wars . That their status became less important than men's .
In fact , It's only recently that women have got their own opportunity in education , work , travel , social activity , etc ... and more freedom in nowadays. The situation is being improved some parts in very good results , but it is a very slow process in remote regions .
I hope that the women status will have more equally for the men's in modern society all over the world . A half of the world, women are expecting to share with men's duty to make life more colourful .
