[Aztlan] Indigenous Women of the Americas site

[Francisco J. Gonzalez]

Interesting site with information on the role of women in pre-Conquest Native American societies.
 
http://precolumbianwomen.com/
 
-- Rarely do Pre-Columbian studies or texts focus much attention or detail on the role of Women in Ancient America: their role in society; their labors; their place in family...This site will mainly focus on societies right before the arrival of the Europeans - Aztec, Mayan, Andean (Inka and others), and briefly North America.  It will focus on women's role in the Maya and Aztec civilizations of Mesoamerica, the Inca culture from South America, and North American in generals --
