In Ancient Greece, the gynaeceum (Greek: gynaikeion, from Ancient Greek gynaikeia "part of the house reserved for the women"; literally "of or belonging to women, feminine") or the gynaeconitis ( gynaiknitis "women's apartments in a house") was a building or the portion of a house reserved for women, generally the innermost apartment. In other words, a women's quarters, similar to the Indian and Muslim zenana. The gynaeceum is the opposite to the andron, or male quarters. * The married woman of the household would often join the unmarried women and the female slaves at night when she did not join her husband. The women spent most of their days in this area of the house. These rooms were more remote from those reserved for the men by placing them away from the streets and public areas of the house. When visitors were entertained the women were not present, but remained in this secluded portion of the house.A section of the imperial palace of Constantinople during the Greek Byzantine Emp |
