PACHECO NEYRA, Gianella. Gender relations: women of San Marcos and corn beer makers. Desde el Sur [online]. 2019, vol.11, n.2, pp.305-315. ISSN 2076-2674.  http://dx.doi.org/10.21142/DES-1102-2019-305-316.

The aim of this article is to offer a reflection upon personal experience, identifying adverse or unfavorable situations with which as women, and specifically as female archaeologists and researchers, we can identify. This reflection also seeks to shed light upon the importance of women in the development of Pre-Hispanic societies, as well as the need for female involvement in archaeological research. The second part of the article focuses upon research into the corn beer makers of Magdalena de Cao, and upon important issues that serve to illustrate problems associated with gender relations in the field of research.

Keywords : Pre-Hispanic societies; gender relations; corn beer production.
