- About Me
I am an independent scholar who publishes on women, sexuality, and religion in the ancient eastern Mediterranean, with foci on Greece and the Levant. I have written six books and co-edited two additional volumes. I am currently working on my next book, which pertains to women throughout world history who are not under patriarchal authority (neither father nor husband), and thus have been wrongly identified as prostitutes in the historiographic record.
