Focusing on bioarchaeological remains, this volume explores the diverse and complex socio-sexual lives of past societies. It challenges the notion of universal aspects of sex, gender, and sexuality, presenting case studies from Neolithic Europe, pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, and the nineteenth-century United States. By emphasizing the need for cultural and historical context, the book reveals how beliefs and practices surrounding sexuality have varied significantly across different times and places.
