TAVERA MEDINA, Carito. A feminist perspective on the Peruvian archaeological community. Desde el Sur [online]. 2019, vol.11, n.2, pp.239-260. ISSN 2076-2674.  http://dx.doi.org/10.21142/DES-1102-2019-239-260.

The life experiences of women, men and minorities (the LGBTIQ + community) in a country like Peru continue to find themselves submerged in a universe of social inequalities, intersected by factors such as social class, ethnic origin, gender, sexuality and age, to mention just a few. These social asymmetries are expressed across different social spaces, including the academic world and the fields of social sciences and the humanities (Vargas, 2014; Alcazar & Balarin, 2018), in which male and female archaeologists interact, and of which we form a part. This article seeks to shed light upon an issue that is discussed rarely, if at all: gender violence. The aim is to provide a first step towards the raising of awareness within the Peruvian archaeological community.

Palabras clave : feminism; archaeology; gender violence; feminist archaeology.
