"Engendering Archaeology advances significantly the small but growing literature on gender in archeology. The book, which contains 14 essays, has two principle foci: women in ancient societies and the concept of gender in archeological inquiry... This is a pioneer effort, full of innovative ideas certain to stimulate investigators to include gender among their research questions and to invite a basic rethinking about how we learn about the past."
