Synopsis "Deities, Dolls, and Devices: Neolithic Figurines From Franchthi Cave, Greece, Fascicle 9, Excavations at Franchthi Cave, Greece (in English)"
Talalay reports on the most important collection of figurines (24 figurines and 21 fragments) in southern Greece, recovered during excavations at Franchthi Cave and at the nearby open-air settlement along the present shoreline. She also reexamines the theoretical and methodological foundations of scholarship in the field of figurine studies. Of particular concern is a critical evaluation of the uses of evidence in addressing gender issues.Lauren E. Talalay is Research Associate and Curator Emerita, Kelsey Museum of Archaeology, University of Michigan. She is the coauthor of In the Field: The Archaeological Expeditions of the Kelsey Museum (2006).
