MAYAN
As a noblewoman of the Maya court, I perform sacred bloodletting rituals to ensure the gods continue to bless my city and validate my family's right to rule.
Maya noblewomen were often highly literate, served as regents, and were essential in religious ceremonies that connected the physical world to the supernatural

Aztec
Aztec women had a "parallel" status; while men were expected to be warriors, women were seen as "warriors of the home," and their work in weaving and food preparation was considered a vital service to the state.
As an Aztec commoner, my day is spent balancing the essential labor of grinding maize for my family’s survival and weaving fine textiles that fulfill our tribute to the Empire.

Inca
Chosen as an Aclla, I live within the temple walls to serve the Sun God, Inti, by weaving the finest garments and preparing the sacred beer for the empire’s holiest festivals.
The Aclla were a specialized class of women removed from their families at a young age to serve the state and the religion. They were the most skilled weavers in the world and played a central role in the Incan economy and spiritual life.
