Fieldnotes provides a new opportunity for professionals to discuss and share their research.

Fieldnotes is a new feature of the AIA website aimed to better server our professional and student Members. It is a user-driven source of information about current trends in the discipline, as well as a venue for presentation and discussion of new directions in the field; methods and methodologies; and institutional funding, research programs, and teaching resources. Both individuals and institutions are encouraged to submit short articles, field reports, announcements, news items, and links to digital resources, which are relevant to the professional and academic membership of the AIA. 

The 2011 AIA Annual Meeting will be held in San Antonio, Texas in the Marriott Riverwalk and Rivercenter hotels. We are returning to our regular Friday through Sunday format with Academic Sessions starting on Friday, January 7 and ending on Sunday, January 9. The Opening Night Reception will be held on the evening of January 6. The Program for the Annual Meeting Committee looks forward to expanding the Academic Program and welcomes your abstract submissions for the 2011 meeting. Open Session submissions will be accepted through August 20.

Please see the complete Call for Papers for details.

The AJA has set the standard for archaeological scholarship since 1885.

The American Journal of Archaeology is one of the world's most distinguished and widely distributed archaeological journals. It was founded in 1885 and is a leader in ground-breaking articles on archaeology and thoughtful book and museum exhibition reviews. The Journal is published quarterly and is available in both print and electronic (PDF) formats. The journal also publishes free, downloadable (PDF) reviews and supplementary content on its website. Please visit the official website of the AJA (www.ajaonline.org) to see the latest content and for full details on subscribing and submitting.

  • Interest Groups

    AIA Members have created Interest Groups focusing on specific issues and topics in archaeology.  These groups provide a forum for discussion among students and scholars. The IGs also meet each year at our Annual Meeting and often propose papers and sessions to the Program Committee.
