- Synopsis
- What This Awl Means is the first book to show how feminist criticism and methods can be brought to the practice and writing of archaeology. Focusing on Little Rapids, a 19th-century Eastern Dakota (Sioux) planting village near present-day Minneapolis, the author brings together information from archaeological, documentary, oral, and pictorial sources to highlight the activities and accomplishments of Dakota women and to show the significance of gender in shaping history.
