About the journal
The European Journal of Archaeology – the international, peer-reviewed journal of the European Association of Archaeologists – aims to publish the best new archaeological research undertaken in and around Europe.
Articles cover a wealth of topics, ranging from major reviews of the prehistoric and historic archaeology of Europe and neighbouring regions, to reports on key archaeological discoveries set within a European context, to cutting-edge research and debates on science-based archaeology, archaeological method and theory, public archaeology and the history of archaeology, to interviews reflecting upon the life and work of significant European archaeologists. All articles are published with short, accessible abstracts in English, French and German.
Thought-provoking reviews are also a key feature of the Journal, including: commissioned book reviews that summarize and assess new publications, evaluations of museum exhibitions and archaeological films, and critical commentaries accompanying articles published in the Journal.
Special issues or sections of the Journal are sometimes also published, comprising collections of articles relating to topics of broad interest to European archaeologists.
Please note that this journal only publishes manuscripts in English, but does include translations of abstracts and keywords in French and in German.
