This paper was originally conceived as a review of the traditional association of certain artifacts with either males or females, an association based on biases deeply rooted in perceived and real gender roles of our own time and culture. Since such stereotypes typically are used to identify the sex of a deceased person, funerary archaeology in Etruria was chosen as a case in point. After reviewing the increasing number of publications addressing feminist issues in some of our sister di sciplines, however, it seemed useful to look at these biases in a broader perspective and to examine how they influence our models of interpretation. The question of gender identification through arti fact categories is just one issue among many, so instead of li sting examples of how women have consistently been marginalized, or plainly ignored, in our interpretations of the material evidence, I will focus on suggesting some possible strategies for rectifying the imbalance in male/female vi sibili ty within our discipline. This paper, therefore, addresses the following issues: the male versus the female perspective; gender roles and the question of power; femini sm and classical archaeology; and gender and Etr uscan burials .
