Abstract
Roman woman’s picture emerged from the ancient authors is rather partial and plenty of negative clichés: they were basically devoted to take care of the home and children. Any woman out of this rigid scheme was harshly criticised for it. Nevertheless, epigraphic sources reveal a very different situation, since they record women bestowing generous donations to their community or being publicly honoured with honorific statues in the most important places in the town. The aim of our paper is to transfer this reality showed by epigraphy to the secondary school classroom, where there is still a need to increase the presence of gender content. With that purpose, two proposals for digital activities have been designed to work on the history of women in the Roman town.
