Doing so in archaeological contexts is difficult but can be accomplished through the examination of grave goods, which provide a unique window into the individuals' identities. The present study explores the intersectional nature of social identity in the Dolenjska Hallstatt culture of Early Iron Age Slovenia (800 - 300 BCE) using grave goods from the Kapiteljska njiva cemetery. Three aspects of identity are included: gender, social role (identified using diagnostic artifacts), and social status (measured using number of items, number of prestige items, and types of prestige items). The interaction between the variables is tested using generalized linear models and chi-squared tests of association. Results indicate that expressions of gender and status are closely related, with women demonstrating status in ways that are most visible archaeologically. The role of weaver and warrior are closely related to feminine and masculine gender, respectively. Other roles, such as equestrian, are also limited by status. Statistical relationships between gender, status, and role confirm the intersectional nature of social identity in Dolenjska Hallstatt culture.","abstract_html":"There are two key components to understanding social identity: identifying important areas and understanding how they interact.
