Abstract
Abstract This article discusses some aspects of the women’s role in South American archaeology. This includes a brief history of the development of gender studies in archaeology, and it highlights how the feminist movement has influenced women’s ideas about their practice as archaeologists. The article deals with two aspects of women’s work in the archaeology of South America. The first refers to how South American archaeology has studied women in the past and, particularly, how sex, gender, and power have been considered in the archaeological literature. The second aspect is a reflection on what role has been played by women in South American archaeology during the recent past and at the present—that is to say, how women practicing archaeology have worked in an environment dominated by the “Latin-American macho.”
