However, we can infer what kinds of chores would have been common in ancient Greece based on historical records:
* Household tasks: Cleaning the house (sweeping, dusting, possibly mopping depending on flooring), washing clothes (by hand in a river or basin), preparing meals (grinding grain, cooking over a fire), fetching water, tending to lamps and fires. These tasks would have fallen primarily on women and slaves.
* Agricultural tasks: If living in a rural setting, chores would have included farming duties like plowing fields, planting and harvesting crops, tending livestock (sheep, goats, etc.), and processing agricultural products (making cheese, olive oil, wine). Men would have been primarily responsible for these.
* Maintenance tasks: Repairing and maintaining the home, tools, and equipment. This could involve carpentry, basic plumbing (if any), and general upkeep. This would have been the domain of men, or potentially slaves skilled in these areas.
In short, "Greek chores" isn't a defined term, but the types of chores would have been similar to those in other ancient agrarian societies, with a significant division of labor based on gender and social standing.
