The structure of ancient Ethiopian families was so important for them culture, why? Because social life, include politic and economic, turned around family. Everyone person in the family played an important roll that I am going to describe next:
FATHERHe was the worker; he spent time at landscapes with animals and other economic activities. The work includes a lot of things, such as crops, sailing, hunting and manufacturing. Ethiopian culture was so much in everything, at parties the man was the person who drinks all that he wanted; men could chose the wear (women could not) . When a man had a son, he had to be naked and carried his child, in a ritual dance, around the household.
MOTHER: They had very limited freedom outside the home. They could not assistant to parties, just funerals or something related with religious festivals. What was the role? She was the responsible of the house, she had to run the house and bring up children, but they did not do like a wife house, ancient Ethiopian women had slaves.
CHILDREN: Children were youth under the age of 30. Their role did not have importance, they had to help their mother, and help in the fields, if necessary. What did they love to do? Played with many toys, clay animals and stick horses on 4 wheels, with yo-yo’s and girls preferred to play with dolls.In brief Ethiopian families were so religious; they believed in a lot of “gods”, they were polytheist. They had some ritual routines based on mythological situations, they believed in deities and legendary characters.They were so different like us, cultures change and people change. Traditions at eastern are really different with western traditions, it depends at the history and maybe legends.
