The wife of a blacksmith somewhere in Roman Italy. I want to know what her work-role in the household is, I want to know how she views the world, her relationship to the state, everything. We have so little to go on when it comes to 'working class' (so to speak) Roman women.https://twitter.com/rebecca_fachner/status/1366390986428076039 …

There’s a book called Darwin’s Cathedral which made the argument that Roman women were sidelined by their (pagan) religion and Christianity was able to take root due to its emphasis on family. Do you think there’s any truth to that?
