摘要:The 2003 SAA Member Needs Assessment Survey
included a series of questions sponsored by the Committee
for the Status of Women in Archaeology
(COSWA) to explore areas of potential gender inequities in
the practice of archaeology. An analysis of these data suggested
there were pronounced differences in how men and
women perceived the climate for women in the discipline
(Baxter 2005). The presentation of these data in a poster session
at the 2005 SAA meetings in Salt Lake City and a subsequent
workshop at the 2006 meetings in Puerto Rico led to
the realization that creating forums for women to share their
experiences was an important contribution that COSWA
could make to the SAA membership.
