Gender Through Time in the Ancient Near East, Hardback Book

Gender Through Time in the Ancient Near East Hardback

Edited by Diane Bolger

Part of the Gender and Archaeology series

Hardback

Description

Although the ancient Near East has been studied by anthropologists, archaeologists, philologists, and historians, no single work has explored issues of gender and social identity across the broad temporal and geographical range of Near Eastern civilizations.

Gender Through Time in the Ancient Near East thus makes a unique contribution to gender studies.

The volume's contributors—an international group of experts from Near Easern, European and American institutions—look at the archaeological and other evidence to find out how gender roles were constructed in these ancient worlds and what they meant to the men and women who assumed them.
