Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
the author argues that maritime archaeology is entrenched in the male/female paradigm, and that just as boat-building, sailing, fishing, trading, exploring and colonizing are regarded as male activities, maritime archaeology remains masculine in its approach, techniques and interpretation. She contends that, by failing to acknowledge this, maritime archaeologists are restricting their reconstructions of past maritime societies and are further maintaining the perception of maritime archaeology as having a minor, subsidiary role within the wider discipline of archaeology; and that consequently there is a need for more rigorous and reflexive archaeological interpretation, for the production of self-critical, social archaeologies and for the queering of maritime archaeology | |
