Description
Summary:Since the first dives of Honor Frost (1917-2010), pioneer of underwater archaeology from the middle of 1950s, this research field a priori dominated by men, quickly feminized until it transformed to a women’s field today. Half a century later, the development of this specialization, which has now become a real professional orientation, allows to observe and question this particular transformation. This paper proposes to trace the evolution of women’s role in underwater archaeology in France, from the 1950’s to the present day.
