Description
Summary:This interview in the journal Tracés looks at the issue of gender inequality in Prehistory. Researchers Anne Augereau, Claudine Cohen and Aline Thomas discuss the archaeological methods that can be used to document gender relations in the Palaeolithic and Neolithic periods and explain what is at stake in this research. In particular, they show how certain grand narratives stand in the way of our archaeological knowledge of gender and relations between men and women. Critically distancing ourselves from the idea of a “nature” that would underpin the sexual division of labour or from the myth of a primitive matriarchy is seen not only as a prerequisite for scientific knowledge of humanity’s past but also as a means of making a relevant contribution to current feminist issues.
