Abstract :

The employment of women of northern Khorasan tribes in the Pahlavi period, based on oral historyWomen's employment throughout history is one of the issues about which there is little knowledge. With the tools of interview and oral history, this deficiency can be solved at least one or two centuries ago. The source of these tools are old people who are still alive and dynamically living around us.According to these living sources, the activity of women in North Khorasan has been a confirmation of their activity for centuries in the field of work outside and family life, and despite the fact that their active presence at home and perhaps throughout history has been ignored. They are the inheritors of activities that have continued until now and have covered all areas of people's lives in this region. Animal husbandry, agriculture, spinning and weaving were among the occupations of women in this region. This article tries to deal with the efforts and employment of women in North Khorasan (villagers and nomads).Key words: women, North Khorasan, employment, weaving
