The final chapter in this first part addresses the need to identify women in the archaeological record: it discusses women's work in the author's family and then in Antofagasta de la Sierra, noting that the emphasis on women in the past solely as producers of the next generation (of boys) is sadly insufficient when considering human societies. The third part concerns women working in the promotion/protection of the archaeological patrimony today. The second part of her chapter, about the creation of the new Machu Picchu museum in Cuzco, really belongs elsewhere, although she does focus on the inclusion of women in its exhibits and signage.
