Matilda Coxe Stevenson (1849–1915
Inscription
Matilda Coxe Stevenson was the first female anthropologist to study the Native Americans of New Mexico. Her research focused on the religious practices of indigenous peoples, particularly of the Zuni, and on the lives of native women and children. In 1885, she founded the Woman’s Anthropological Society of America, a national organization, in part to address the inequality of the sexes in the field of Anthropology.
