NOW:

Vol. 9-10
2006/2007

Deadline: 30 September 2006

Dear colleagues

I send this message in English in order to be understood by the majority of colleagues, be them Portuguese, Spanish, British, French, German, other Europeans, North-Americans, other Americans, or whatever

This journal was created in 1998 and 8 volumes (0-7) have been edited.

It is unique, because it uses only the British language as a vehicle to communicate ideas useful to Iberian Archaeology 
– note that it uses it as a tool. 
That does not mean any lack of respect by other languages, including the Portuguese one, as it is obvious
It is a non profit publication published by ADECAP – Association for the Improvement of Cooperation in Iberian Archaeology (Porto)
Available at Portico Librerías, Zaragoza
Portico - Distribucion <distrib@porticolibrerias.es>

Contact for sending papers’s proposals:
Vítor Oliveira Jorge <vojorge@clix.pt>

We accept papers (10-15 pages – Times New Roman- Size 12 + 2-4 pages of plates black and white. Size of page: 18 X 12 cm.)
And we also wish to include news, reviews, etc. - any valuable contributions.
The scientific board of the journal – or, when needed – some colleagues invited, function as peer reviewers of any papers submitted and whose quality/interest may raise doubt

What do we consider useful papers for this Journal?
Matters:

• Theory/methodology/History of Archaeology and connected disciplines: Anthropology, Architecture, Material Culture Studies, Museum Studies, Heritage Studies, etc.
• Archaeology of Iberian Peninsula, about all epochs, including XX century
• Archaeology of Europe as long as it which includes some consideration about Iberian peninsula matters.
  

We prefer:

    - papers raising new questions and presenting new synthesis
    - papers useful to a critical archaeology turned into other disciplines and paying attention to present issues of archaeological values as a public resource
    - presentation of new sites or regions, reports of excavations and projects, general ideas coming out from PhDs in preparation, etc., but avoiding unnecessary descriptivism

We would like to receive:

• papers on Proto-history, Roman Archaeology, Medieval Archaeology, Modern and Contemporary Archaeology
• interdisciplinary papers about those matters who really matter, but...to which writing we never find time enough
• papers by authors who until now did not send any paper, especially those including the Scientific Board.... But also young people papers !!!!!
  

ADECAP is a small association. We work on a volunteer basis. So please be patient when we do not answer immediately.
Thanks!

Authors who do not write in English or who need (as ourselves) revision of their texts, will be invited to submit them to a person indicated by us.
ADECAP can not cover those translation/revision expenses.
By lack of means we do not make exchange with other journals.


We send JIA to all the associates of ADECAP.
Annual membership fee of ADECAP is:
Portugal: 20 € - plus 10€ for new members; undergraduate students - 12,5€ - plus 5€ for new members. 
Abroad: 25 € - plus 10€ for new members; undergraduate students - 15€ - plus 5€ for new members.
