In its first centuries, half the churches were founded by women. Frescoes in the Roman catacombs depict images of women in priestly garb offering the Eucharist. Much of this changed when Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire in 381 and adapted itself to Roman hierarchy and power structures.
