Not sure in the IFA has clear data on disbility, especilay its spread around the proffesion and up the hierarchy...?
There has recently been an IFA sponsored survey, advertised on here a while ago, of disability in archaeology, it is in draft form and will be out soon. It covers many disabilities, including dyslexia, aspergers and mobility issues. I was surprised at the low numbers of crocked knees/backs/wrists in the survey, but I guess we stoic types consider that wear and tear, rather than a disability. It makes interesting reading and hopefully will lead to further work.
