Oggetto: [ZOOARCH] Women in Zooarchaeology
Hello,
I am off to a conference to speak on women in archaeology and so I have been reflecting on my career path and that of other women in zooarchaeology. I would welcome suggestions from the community of ZOOARCH women as to their role models, and any reflections as to whether zooarchaeology is different to tradtional archaeology in terms of the gender balance.
At present I am looking at this from my own British perspective, where women such as Barbara Noddle, Caroline Grigson, Juliet Clutton-Brock, Jenny Coy, Jennifer Bourdillion and Dale Serjeantson all provided me with zooarchaeological role models.
So who inspired you? And is zooarchaeology a good place to pursue a career as a woman? Please reply on or off list.
(Also feel free to have a similar conversation about other groups within our discipline)
Best wishes,
Dr Jacqui
