About the journal
![](http://202.114.65.55/ahci/edit/upfile/1072-5369.jpg)
Journal of Archaeological Method and Theory furnishes timely and authoritative `topical syntheses', substantial original articles that critically assess and integrate research on a specific subject in archaeological method or theory. More than a bibliographic essay, each article establishes a framework for synthesizing findings, provides incisive commentary on previous work, and identifies research priorities. Articles on the history of archaeology, method- or theory-focused case studies, and significant explorations on the cutting edge are also included. Written by experts in the subject matter, articles are aimed at a general and international audience of archaeologists, students of archaeology, and practitioners of closely related disciplines.
Rated 'A' in the European Reference Index for the Humanities (ERIH) Journal of Archaeological Method and Theory is rated 'A' in the ERHI, a new reference index that aims to help evenly access the scientific quality of Humanities research output.

The Editor will supply the necessary forms for this transfer.

Footnotes should be avoided. When their use is absolutely necessary, footnotes should be numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals and should be typed at the bottom of the page to which they refer. Place a line above the footnote, so that it is set off from the text. Use the appropriate superscript numeral for citation in the text. |
Illustration Style
Submission of Accepted Manuscripts
After a manuscript has been accepted for publication and after all revisions have been incorporated, manuscripts should be submitted to the Editor’s Office as hard copy accompanied by electronic files on disk. Label the disk with identifying information −− software, journal name, and first author’s last name. The disk must be the one from which the accompanying manuscript (finalized version) was printed out. The Editor’s Office cannot accept a disk without its accompanying, matching hard−copy manuscript.
Page Charges
The journal makes no page charges. Reprints are available to authors, and order forms with the current price schedule are sent with proofs.
Springer Open Choice
In addition to the normal publication process (whereby an article is submitted to the journal and access to that article is granted to customers who have purchased a subscription), Springer now provides an alternative publishing option: Springer Open Choice. A Springer Open Choice article receives all the benefits of a regular subscription−based article, but in addition is made available publicly through Springers online platform SpringerLink. To publish via Springer Open Choice, upon acceptance please visit the link below to complete the relevant order form and provide the required payment information. Payment must be received in full before publication or articles will publish as regular subscription−model articles. We regret that Springer Open Choice cannot be ordered for published articles.
