The correct answer is D. Signs that the status of women in Hellenistic society showed some improvement over the classical period include evidence that some royal mothers and daughters exercised political power, some nonroyal women held important priestly offices, and that women contributed to high culture as poets, harpists, artists, and architects far more than in the classic era.

Explanation:

The Hellenistic era was significant for women. Indeed, during this period, women were more and more present in the public sphere (at religious, political, administrative, legal, arts, etc.). During this period, women held public roles or assumed official offices similar to those held by men.

Women in the Hellenistic era had very few legal or political rights. However, they have, for example, the possibility of managing their dowry. Women also have the opportunity to acquire land and resell it. Real estate transactions by women were quite common during this period.

Some rare examples provided by the documentation testify to the presence of women in the professional field. In these times of men, women were very little present in the public sphere except through their guardians (fathers, brothers, etc.). However, they were present in commercial activities, for example they sold products made at home.

the answer as multiple choice is c

africa, the second-largest continent, is bounded by the mediterranean sea, the red sea, the indian ocean, and the atlantic ocean. it is divided in half almost equally by the equator. the continent includes the islands of cape verde, madagascar, mauritius, seychelles, and comoros.

africa’s physical geography, environment and resources, and human geography can be considered separately.

the origin of the name “africa” is greatly disputed by scholars. most believe it stems from words used by the phoenicians, greeks, and romans. important words include the egyptian word afru-ika, meaning “motherland”; the greek word aphrike, meaning “without cold”; and the latin word aprica, meaning “sunny.”

today, africa is home to more countries than any other continent in the world. these countries are: morocco, western sahara (morocco), algeria, tunisia, libya, egypt, sudan, chad, niger, mali, mauritania, senegal, the gambia, guinea-bissau, guinea, sierra leone, liberia, côte d’ivoire, ghana, burkina faso, togo, benin, nigeria, cameroon, central africa republic, equatorial guinea, gabon, congo, democratic republic of the congo, angola, namibia, botswana, south africa, lesotho, swaziland, mozambique, zimbabwe, zambia, malawi, tanzania, rwanda, burundi, uganda, kenya, somalia, ethiopia, djibouti, eritrea and the island countries of cape verde, madagascar, mauritius, seychelles, and comoros.
