Bronze age women in Spain were textile workers

Textile related work tasks were only carried out by women during the Bronze Age (1900-1600 BC) in southern Spain, a study of dental records concludes. Researchers examined the teeth of 106 individuals buried in Granada, southern Spain, who were part of the Argaric culture 4,000 years ago. Dental wear included notches, flakes and grooves on the enamel. This came from working plant and animal fibres used in the production of textiles and baskets.
