This commonplace ancient method of gender differentiation\, however\, proves to be both complex and flexible\, encompassing the differing worldviews of Pharaonic Egypt and Archaic Greece and revealing underlying societal ideals about the roles and status of men and women.Å·ÖÞ±­ÍøÍ¶_Å·ÖÞ±­ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø Mary Ann Eaverly: Mary Ann Eaverly is Professor of Classics at the University of Florida\, where she has won several teaching awards.
