Text and its Elements
Whatever way is chosen for submitting a paper to the Journal of African Archaeology, contributors should be aware of the following instructions:
1. All elements of the manuscript (title, abstract, text body, footnotes, bibliography and captions) must be typed in double space with a typeface not smaller than 12 points;
2. Each element of the text should always begin on a new page, their order being as follows: title page, abstract, body of the text, references, captions of tables and figures;
3. The < title page > should include the title itself, and, below this, the name of the author, his/her institutional affiliation with address for correspondence as well as e-mail address.
4. The abstract page(s) should include brief texts, both in English and French, touching upon the main subjects discussed in the paper. Abstracts in each language should not surpass two hundred words and should not contain any kind of references, bibliographic citations or footnotes
5. Authors are free for the inclusion of footnotes, if these concern relevant points of the text, but the number of footnotes should be kept to the minimum necessary.
6. The bibliographical references should only contain works cited in the text. References in the text are to be made to conform to the current international literature. Page numbers are required, save for references on an entire work. Page numbers should never be followed by 'f' or 'ff', but indicated specifically. If several works are going to be cited for one single text passage, entries should be set in chronological order from the earliest to the youngest. Cited works having more than two authors must make use of 'et al.', but the bibliographical list at the end of the manuscript has to include the name of all authors of each single publication. Below, some examples on the manner of citing in the text and in the references.
Citations in the text should occur as follows:
Mustermann (1997) or (Mustermann 1997)
Mustermann (1998: 55) or (Mustermann 1998: 55)
Musterfrau (1999: 33-34) or (Musterfrau 1999: 33-34)

Tables and Figures
Always provide a separate
electronic data file of each table and figure. Contributors should send the tables complete and ready to print, but
the final layout remains the decision of the publisher.
Black & white as well as colour photographs and graphics are welcomed by the editor, however,
colour prints are restricted to 4 half page units or 2 full page units per contribution. Authors are,
therefore, advised to choose by themselves which of their figures should be printed in colour and
which not. If further colour illustrations are necessary, please contact the publishers.
Contributors should be concerned with the quality of their illustrative materials, as a need for
improvement can result in their return to the author. When submitted digitally,
illustrations should have a minimum of 600 dpi and preferably in one of the following formats:
.pdf / .tif / .jpg / .wmf / .ai / .psd.
When submitted digitally, the images should not be smaller than the size in which they will be published
