MUJERES, Y TAMBIÉN ARQUEOLOGÍA. SEXUAR EL PASADO Y EL PRESENTE

Abstract

Sexingthereality,eitherinthepastandthepresent,highlightingtheroleofwomen, as a group that must assume the work of basic production of bodies, is what allows us to address the material conditions and the quality of life and access to social wealth in its existence. Against the ideology of Capitalism, and the persistence of Patriarchy, we question the individualism and relativism that has been imposing notions and approaches alien to feminist fights in the recent decades, also in Archaeology. Therefore, we underline the need not to confuse dimensions that involve women, so that work, economy and production, sexual orientation, political classifications and ideological and identity referents are clearly demarcated and contextualized. Finally, we consider evidence and problems of the reality of women in archaeological research in the South Coast of Peru (from the Chincha valley to the Rio Grande de Nasca basin), between c. 1400 cal BCE and 400 cal CE), using information on attires.
