This volume brings together the latest approaches in bioarchaeology
in the study of sex and gender. Archaeologists have long used
skeletal remains to identify gender. Contemporary
bioarchaeologists, however, have begun to challenge the theoretical
and methodological basis for sex assignment from the skeleton.
Simultaneously, they have started to consider the cultural
construction of the gendered body and gender roles, recognizing the
body as uniquely fashioned from the interaction of biological,
social, and environmental factors. As the contributors to this
volume reveal, combining skeletal data with contextual information
can provide a richer understanding of life in the past.
