Throughout the history of archaeology in Serbia, it has played a significant role in the emancipation of society in general. Thus, archaeology strongly has contributed to the empowerment of women in the profession: from fieldwork to university teaching. The question that this presentation posits is whether this general tendency of inherited emancipation can be maintained in the face of rising patriarchal pressures. If female roles have declined, it behooves the question of how archaeological practice contributes to gender inequality.
Despite trends to re-patriarchalism, there has been unexpected positive developments for Serbian archaeology with the adoption of the Policy on Protection Against Sexual Harassment and Assault at the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Belgrade (Serbia), in December 2019. From a total of 31 individual faculties under the jurisdiction of the University of Belgrade, so far only one has had a similar Policy – the Faculty of Political Science. The existence ...of such a policy is especially important for the Department of Archaeology, as it addresses field and museum practices for its students. Nevertheless, some issues are unresolved which need further discussion.
The Department of Archaeology is but one of ten departments of the Faculty of Philosophy, at the University of Belgrade; consequently, the specific needs of archaeology are not recognized in detail in the policy itself. To overcome such shortcomings, it is necessary to speak publicly about examples of good practice in cooperation with non-governmental organizations as they are more experienced in these areas. It is also necessary to provide a space for students to hear their problems firsthand.
