"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."-Choice "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."-British Journal of the History of Science
Women in Archaeology documents and discusses attempts to exclude women from the discipline of archaeology and the resulting androcentrism of archaeological knowledge.
