  1. O:54 "it was only the men". I wish people would stop telling this lie. It was the gold people, including men and women. The lowest gold woman was still above the highest silver person, man or woman. The lowest silver person can't vote but is still above the highest copper person. Go look at rich women in India. Compare them to poor men. That is the truth, divide people by rich and poor, not men and women, to see the simple truth.

  2. The lowest of copper people was still above the highest slave. Women often were the slave masters, along with their eldest son. Women inherited the land of their dead husband and were expected to pass it to their eldest son, who in turn is expected to take care of the entire family with that land. Can't be a gold person without land and a status given to family clans for special activities granted by that same democracy.
