Life in ancient Greece depended largely on your gender and socioeconomic class. Greek society was very male dominated--only men could be citizens and enjoy a full education. Women were expected to stay in the home and raise their families.
Slavery was also central to Greek life. Up to a quarter of the population were slaves, and they provided much of the physical labor that spurred the economy. They mostly served in Greece's shipyards, mines, and quaries, as well as in the homes of wealthier families.
