From the publisher

Gender and Archaeology is the first volume to critically review the development of this now key topic internationally, across a range of periods and material culture. l Roberta Gilchrist explores the significance of the feminist epistemologies. She shows the unique perspective that gender archaeology can bring to bear on issues such as division of labour and the life course. She examines issues of sexuality, and the embodiment of sexual identity. A substantial case study of gender space and metaphor in the medieval English castle is used to draw together and illustrate these issues.

About the author

Professor of Archaeology at the University of Reading, and Archaeologist to Norwich Cathedral. She has published extensively on both gender and medieval archaeology, including Gender and Material Culture: The Archaeology of Religious Women (Routledge 1994).
