Come join me at the Cycles of Empowerment - Women's Health Fest in Vienna on June 12, 2024, where I will talk about Women's Health in Archaeology.
Understanding our past roots us in the present and provides perspectives for the future. Throughout history, women have encountered unique challenges concerning their health, shaping the landscape of women's healthcare practices and the roles of female healers.
This talk will take us on a brief journey through the archaeology and history of women’s health from antiquity to modern times: from written sources like the Kahun Gynaecological Papyrus (ca. 1825 BCE) to artefacts that provide insights into the day-to-day practices of maintaining health, preventing or curing disease, and to female physicians of ancient and modern times who stood out within a male-dominated field.
