Language: English

Archaeologists are well situated for the study of disability because social expectations about normative ability and behavior are embedded into buildings, landscapes, material culture, and daily practices. Archaeologists can destabilize norms by investigating how expectations changed over time, and archaeological research is a way of exploring the intersection between embodied experiences, agency, and identification. Archaeological research into embodied and social experiences of disability and institutionalization can inform current debates about accessibility and healthcare inequality. Window glass at an early twentieth-century tuberculosis sanatoria is an example of how ideas about the body are embedded in the landscape and built environment.
