The Invisible Sex (eBook, PDF)

Uncovering the True Roles of Women in Prehistory

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In The Invisible Sex, the authors present an exciting new look at prehistory, arguing that women invented all kinds of critical materials, including the clothing necessary for life in colder climates, the ropes used to make rafts that enabled long-distance travel by water, and nets used for communal hunting. In this eye-opening book, a new story about women in prehistory emerges with provocative implications for our assumptions about gender today.
