Jane M. Eastman, Christopher B. Rodning - Archaeological Studies of Gender in the Southeastern United States
Published: 2001-03-15 | ISBN: 0813018757, 161610113X | PDF | 216 pages | 2 MB


In the first book about the archaeology of gender in native societies of southeastern North America, these lively essays reconstruct the different social roles and relationships adopted by women and men before and after the arrival of Europeans in the 16th century. Case studies explore the ways in which gender differences affected people’s daily lives by examining material evidence from archaeological sites, including grave goods, human remains, spatial configurations of burials and architecture, and evidence for economic specialization and the division of labor within households.
