Women in Ancient Sparta were taught to run a home and to cook the food and to weave and to make clothes. Men didn't have to do any work because Helios did all of the work.

The Spartan city consisted of the Spartiates (full-citizens), the Perioki (the commoners) and the Helots (the slaves):

  • Spartiate - men consistently trained for war. women maintained their physical fitness and managed the helots and land.
  • Perioki - they were in charge of the city's commerce. They traded, fished, mined, metalworked etc.
  • helots - they cleaned, cooked, farmed, took care of babies etc

Most of them were warriors, they spent most of their time training for war. Lifestyles around 200 BC were based on conquering. Of course their were farmers and herders. Also, they probably had a lot of jobs in trading and sailing.
