The reasons for this female-to-male cross-gender role are various. Early records refer predominantly to this as the only acceptable alternative to not marrying the man to whom a woman was betrothed (thereby saving the honor of all involved). Until the l920s, up to 30% of the male population died violent deaths, putting a specially high value on male descendants. Not infrequently the shortage of boys was redressed by designating a daughter henceforth to become a son. This tradition has remained alive in the Northern Albanian Alps, where bloodfeuds are being revived. The following paper results from both archival and empirical research over a period of several years. I first became interested in the subject through my own travel and study in the area since the late l950s. There is an extensive literature, much written by early foreign travelers to the area in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and up to the Second World War.3 Amongst these visitors were such well-known figures as Lord Byron and Edward Lear. Almost all these writers referred to the Kanun, and many to "Albanian virgins". In this century Albanian anthropologists and ethnographers have also written of the phenomenon. I should particularly mention the English woman traveler and self-trained anthropologist, Mary Edith Durham who spent much of the first quarter of this century in all parts of the Balkans and even influenced British foreign 60 policy in the area. Durham switched allegiance from her early support of Serbia, to a lifelong concern with Albania. She met several "sworn virgins", some of whom are featured in her book High Albania.4 On a visit to Albania in the mid-l930s, it was several days before the travel writer, Bernard Newman discovered that his guide was a woman.5 More recently, the well- known Canadian novelist, Alice Munro has informed the world of the traditional phenomen through her short story "The Albanian Virgin".6 Although records from the past l50 years have proved the existence of "sworn virgins" in areas of Montenegro and Kosova adjoining Northern Albania, the present study has concentrated primarily in Northern Albania. Placing the phenomenon historically It is in this northern mountainous area that people still live by the Kanun or Laws of Lek Dukagjin. These oral laws were first written down early this century (and translated into Italian in l94l, into English in l989 and into Russian in l994). They contain l263 articles concerned with rural life, including the church, the family, property, land, work, honor and marriage. The Kanun also gives a detailed description of the rigidly gendered division of labor: Traditionally men's work includes: all heavy manual work (chopping wood, sything, mowing, harvesting, protecting animals and property); talking to visitors, drinking and smoking with visitors, avenging family honor. Women's tasks include: bearing and rearing children; cooking and cleaning house; serving men and guests (including washing their feet); carrying water and firewood; seeing to dairy production and taking it to market; storing
