Description

"This first comprehensive work on women in precolumbian American cultures describes gender roles and relationships in North, Central, and South America from 12,000 B.C. to the 1500s A.D. Utilizing many key archaeological works, Karen Olsen Bruhns and Karen E. Stothert redress some of the long-standing male bias in writing about ancient Native American lifeways."--BOOK JACKET. "This innovative book will appeal to students, scholars, and general readers interested in archaeology, the Americas, and women's studies."--BOOK JACKET.
