About the journal

Section C of the Proceedings publishes original research papers primarily in the fields of archaeology and history, although submissions in Celtic studies, linguistics and literature will also be considered. Papers should focus on Ireland or have a strong Irish relevance; submissions without an obvious Irish relevance may be considered at the editors’ discretion, and authors should approach the editors before making such submissions. Scholarly editions of short historical documents of Irish origin or interest are also published.
Instructions to Authors
General submission instructions and guidelines for authors
Papers may be submitted by Members or non-members of the Academy and should be emailed to submissions@ria.ie All submissions are refereed. Below you will find the journal's submission instructions and style guidelines for archaeology papers and history papers, which are designed to ensure that your paper goes through the editorial process as smoothly as possible. Please consult the style guidelines and the journal checklist before submitting your paper.
Abstract: Each paper must be preceded by an abstract not exceeding 150 words, which should be intelligible in itself without reference to the paper.
Text: The length of papers submitted for publication should not exceed twenty printed pages (approximately 10,000 words); papers exceeding thirty pages (approximately 15,000 words) will not be considered without the approval of the Academic Editors and a member of the Section C Editorial Board. The text should be presented in double spacing, with wide margins and the right-hand margin left unjustified. Low-resolution scans or photocopies of any line figures or maps should accompany the paper at the initial submission stage. If submitting in hard copy, two copies of the paper (including photocopies of illustrations) are required.
Illustrations: Electronic image files, saved in .jpeg format, should be accompanied by hard-copy originals or printouts. A resolution of 300 dpi for figures and plates is required. Hard-copy line drawings should be in black drawing ink on smooth white card or on good-quality tracing material. Bromide reductions will be accepted provided the definition is good.
The main text must contain references to all illustrations used (Pl. or Pls with roman numerals for plates (e.g. photos, transparencies); Fig. or Figs with arabic numerals for artwork (e.g. line drawings); separate sequences for plates and figures). The captions for the illustrations should be provided on a separate list. Each image should be labeled with the author’s name and plate/figure number (this information should be attached to the back of hard-copy plates/figures: do not write directly on the original).
The space available for illustrations (including captions) is 125mm by 190mm. Originals should be submitted at publication size or larger; care should be taken that any lettering or decoration on the illustration will accept the necessary reduction. If scale is important, a scale bar that will accept the necessary reduction should be inserted. The separate figures/plates for a composite figure or plate, if submitted in hard copy, should be carefully mounted on card as close together as convenient.
Authors will be required to pay the cost of large maps that have to be reproduced as folder plates. When submitted, such maps must not exceed 750mm by 1000mm, and should, if possible, be drawn to reduce to 20cm in height so as to avoid folding two ways.
Authors must obtain written permission to use illustrations by anyone other than the author(s) that are still in copyright. Even if the illustration is no longer in copyright, an acknowledgement of a source other than the author(s) must be included in the caption.
Tables: Tables should be presented separately from the text. Each table should be labeled with a descriptive legend that makes its general meaning understandable without reference to the text. Vertical rules should be avoided.
References AUTHORS ALONE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACCURACY OF THEIR REFERENCES. Sample references are included in the style guidelines for archaeology papers and history papers. Authors should also consult previously published papers for examples of the appropriate format.
In archaeology papers, literature cited in the text should be given in a reference list at the end of the paper, arranged in alphabetical order of the authors’ surnames. In the body of the text the author's name and the year of publication should be cited as, e.g. ‘(Ryan 1957)’, ‘(Murphy and O'Shea 1979)’; where the author’s name occurs in the sentence, only the year should be given in brackets, e.g. ‘Ryan (1957) has found.’. If reference is made to a paper by three or more authors it should be shortened in the text as, e.g., ‘(Rogerson et al. 1987)’, but all authors’ names should be given in the reference list.
In history papers, bibliographical references should be indicated by superscript footnote indicators and given in full detail in the footnotes. In second and subsequent references to a given work, author surname and short title should be used.
It is recommended that authors consult the style guidelines for archaeology papers or for history papers and a recent paper in the appropriate field in Section C of the Proceedings for matters of style and layout.
Editorial queries: Electronically edited papers, together with editorial queries, are emailed to authors before papers go to press. Authors are asked to respond to editorial queries without delay, and to indicate if any editorial changes are problematic.
Proof correction: Authors are asked to check and return proofs without delay. Corrections and answers to editorial queries should be made clearly and legibly in red ink or should be listed in a Word document.
Offprints: It is now possible to print your offprints from the website. Offprints may be supplied by the Publications Office at cost provided the order is submitted with your proofs. The price will be dependent on the costs of production in any given year.
Subventions Subventions to assist with costs of publication of papers are welcomed by the Academy and should be sought by authors in a position to obtain them.
