Sumario: | This preliminary article arose from the interest of a group of women archaeologists from different parts of the Province of Mendoza (Argentina) who met with the aim of generating a new perspective on the place of women in the local history of the discipline. This vision, based on their own accounts, makes it possible to highlight, rethink, and question this history and clarify the current situation. To address this issue, we worked on three areas of analysis. The first focuses on recognizing the trajectories of women pioneers and finding evidence of them in the history of archaeology in Mendoza. The second area analyzes the professional disparity between men and women within the discipline. The third area investigates the types of violence in the professional and academic environment. The results show the historical invisibility of pioneer women archaeologists in the province between the 1940s and 1970s. It was also possible to recognize the disparity and professional segregation between women and men in the field of teaching and research, where women achieve less progress in professional careers. Finally, we describe concrete actions of gender violence experienced by women archaeologists today, which reveals the internalization of the mechanisms of patriarchal coercion within the academic system.
