More About the Author

Rosemary A. Joyce is an anthropological archaeologist who has conducted fieldwork in Honduras for more than thirty years. With a BA from Cornell University and a PhD from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, she has taught at Harvard University and Berkeley, and worked at Harvard's Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology and Berkeley's Phoebe Hearst Museum of Anthropology. She writes about sex and gender in the past; social organization and social change in prehispanic Mexico and Central America; and theory in contemporary archaeology. While she would like to be known for her work on the earliest villages of Honduras, she is resigned to being best known for her work on the early history of chocolate.
