Division of Labor

When it comes to work, women have many different tasks. Women do most of the soil preparation, the cultivation, pig tending, harvesting, and transporting of most of the crops. Women have to do most of the childcare even though the older siblings will sometimes be there to help out. Women prepare the food and then also do the cooking. They are also responsible for making all the clothing and net bags. Men are responsible for knocking down trees, obtaining firewood, and preparing the oven fires. Men also make different types of weapons and stone axes.
