In contrast with
Ghana, where women had
traded for hundreds of years
and achieved legal majority
(30) (not unrelated phenomena),
the evidence regarding
central Kenya indicated that
women were legal minors
and were sometimes treated
(35)
as male property, as were
European women at that
time.
Factors like strong
patrilinearity and patrilocality,
as well as women’s inferior
(40) land rights and lesser
involvement in trade, made
women more dependent on
men than was generally the case in Ghana.
