    The most basic legal distinction for Roman women (and men) was free vs. slave.

    A Roman woman always belonged to her father's family, even after marriage.

    A Roman mother automatically lost her children to their father in the event of divorce.

    Roman women could inherit property, have independent wealth, initiate a divorce, and leave a will.

    Roman women could not vote, hold office, or have their own names.
