The gods and goddesses of ancient Egypt played important roles in the creation of the universe and ruled on earth to establish law, ethics, and all elements for orderly human existence. They then passed this role to the king who, accompanied by his queen, would rule as their successors according to the balanced principles of the justice goddess Ma’at.
As we flash forward in time, we see the women of Egypt in yet another era. This time with a different religion that has introduced to society, as a whole, different traditions and customs. A walk in the Old City of Cairo will show you how architecture evolved in this regard. In the old Mamluk and Ottoman homes, you will see intricately carved wooden windows, wings of homes designated to women, private baths, and several other aspects of art that were deliberately created to guard women’s privacy.
