Women in archaeology

About this book

"Pt. 1 of this collection presents a history of women in Americanist archaeology, including a biography of Dorothy Hughes Popenoe who conducted early stratigraphic excavations in Honduras. Pt. 2 focuses on the current status of North American women in Mesoamerican archaeology and problems of gender bias. Valuable discussion of issues, but non-US archaeologists are not covered"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
