<p>"Slowly the record is being set straight. Here is a fine collection of essays that help fill the gender gap in the history of archaeological practice."-<i>Choice</i></p> <p>"This volume represents an important contribution to the growing literature about the relationships between gender and the theory and practice of archaeology. . . . Claassen has moved well beyond a too-heavy focus on argument by assertion to the production of well-thought-through analyses of primary data."-<i>British Journal of the History of Science</i></p>
<p><i>Women in Archaeology</i> documents and discusses attempts to exclude women from the discipline of archaeology and the resulting androcentrism of archaeological knowledge.</p>
The fourteen essays in this collection explore the place of women in archaeology in the twentieth century, arguing that they have largely been excluded from "an essentially all-male establishment."
