Respuesta :

let's go through the options:

1)Women were not considered tribal leaders, but they were respected by their communities.
- this is not true! the woman was the chief, which means she was a leader

2) Women were solely responsible for making important decisions that affected the entire tribe.
there is nothing that lets us see that it was "solely" women- we know that one woman did, not what others did and what men did.

3) Women were responsible for making important decisions concerning their own families. -there is nothing here about the family life, she was the mother of "the nations" - not of the family

4)Women were respected as leaders of the community, and some held the position of chief. - this is the best answer! this woman was a chief, but not every woman can be a chief, so we can be justified in saying that only "some" had this position.
