About the journal
Aims and scope
Journal of World Prehistory is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed original articles that synthesize the prehistory of an area or of a time-horizon within a larger region, or describe technical advances of wide and general application. These overview (or synthetical) papers, written by experts in each field, provide in-depth, thoughtful development of data and concepts in a fashion accessible to and of interest to all archaeologists. The journal focuses on prehistory, including the beginnings and early development of complex societies. Coverage is also given to areas not normally available to American or West European archaeologists, including the Far East, parts of the Third World, and Eastern European countries. Journal of World Prehistory is a source - for both scholars and teachers - of timely and authoritative research syntheses from all fields of archaeology.
Rated 'A' in the European Reference Index for the Humanities (ERIH)
Journal of World Prehistory is rated 'A' in the ERHI, a new reference index that aims to help evenly access the scientific quality of Humanities research output. For more information visit http://www.esf.org/research-areas/humanities/activities/research-infrastructures.html
Instructions to Authors
Instructions for Authors
Journal of World Prehistory
Manuscript Submission
Manuscripts, in triplicate and in English, and editorial inquiries should be submitted to the Editor:
Christopher Chippindale
Reader in Archaeology & Curator for British archaeology collection
Cambridge University Museum of Archaeology & Anthropology
Downing Street
Cambridge

It is strongly recommended that prospective authors contact the Editor before beginning to write, to ensure there is no significant overlap with other manuscripts in progress.
Publication Policies
Submission is a representation that the manuscript has not been published previously and is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. A statement transferring copyright from the authors (or their employers, if they hold the copyright) to Springer Science+Business Media LLC will be required before the manuscript can be accepted for publication. The Editor will supply the necessary forms for this transfer. Such a written transfer of copyright, which previously was assumed to be implicit in the act of submitting a manuscript, is necessary under the U.S. Copyright Law in order for the publisher to carry through the dissemination of research results and reviews as widely and effectively as possible.
Manuscript Style
Type double−spaced on one side of 8 1/2 ?11 inch or A4 white paper using generous margins on all sides, and submit the original and two copies (including, where possible, copies of all illustrations and tables). All copies must be dark, sharp, and clear. Computer−generated manuscripts must be of letter quality (not dot−matrix).
Order the elements comprising the manuscript as follows:
Acknowledgements
|
All acknowledgments (including those for grant and financial support) should be typed in one paragraph on a separate page that directly precedes the references section. |
Title Page
A title page is to be provided and should include
The affiliation should comprise
and should be typed as a footnote to the author’s name. The suggested running head should be less than 80
characters (including spaces) and should comprise the article title or an abbreviated version thereof.
For office purposes, the title page should also include the complete mailing address and telephone number of the one author designated to review proofs.
Abstract
|
An abstract is to be provided, preferably no longer than 150 words. |
Key Words
|
A list of 4−5 key words is to be provided directly below the abstract. Key words should express the precise content of the manuscript, as they are used for indexing purposes. |
References
List references alphabetically at the end of the paper and refer to them in the text by name and year in parentheses. Where there are three or more authors, only the first author’s name is given in the text, followed by et al.
References should include (in this order):
The style and punctuation of the references should conform to that used in the journal−illustrated by the following examples:
|
Journal Article
Bischoff, J. L., and Rosenbauer, R. J. (1981). Uranium series dating of human skeletal remains from the Del Mar and Sunnyvale sites, California. Science 213: 1003−1005. |
|
Book
Wendorf, F., and Schild, R. (1980). Prehistory of the Eastern Sahara, Academic Press, New York. |
|
Contribution to a Book
Hayden, B., Chisholm, B., and Schwarcz, H. P. (1987). Fishing and foraging: Marine resources in the Upper Paleolithic of France. In Soffer, O. (ed.), The Pleistocene Old World: Regional Perspectives, Plenum Press, New York, pp. 279−291. |
Footnotes
|
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
Illustrations
|
Illustrations (photographs, drawings, diagrams, and charts) are to be numbered in one consecutive series of Arabic numerals. The captions for illustrations should be typed on a separate sheet of paper. All illustrations must be complete and final, i.e., camera−ready.
Photographs should be large, glossy prints, showing high contrast. Drawings should be prepared with india ink. Either the original drawings (if not oversized), high−quality photographic prints (sharp and clear in all cases and, if appropriate, reduced to fit on 8 1/2 ?11 inch sheets), or original laser printouts are acceptable.
Identify figures on the back with the author’s name and number of the llustration. Electronic artwork submitted on disk should be in the TIFF or EPS format (1200 dpi for line and 300 dpi for half−tones and gray−scale art). Color art should be in the CYMK color space. Artwork should be on a separate disk from the text, and hard copy must accompany the disk.
|
|
Tables should be numbered (with Roman numerals) and referred to by number in the text. Each table should be typed on a separate sheet of paper. Center the title above the table, and type explanatory footnotes (indicated by superscript lowercase letters) below the table. |
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.
