We show that each archimedean lattice-ordered group is contained in a unique (up to isomorphism) minimal archimedean vector lattice. This improves a result of Paul F. Conrad appearing previously in this Bulletin. Moreover, we show that this relationship between archimedean lattice-ordered groups and archimedean vector lattices is functorial.
