As of May 2021, all active AIA Society members have full access to the digital archives of ARCHAEOLOGY magazine. Thanks to the generous support of an AIA donor, we have partnered with our digital provider to scan all past issues of ARCHAEOLOGY from the first issue in 1948 to the present. Society members can explore any issue and discover which stories the magazine covered throughout the years.
Over time, we will develop curated reading lists to help our users quickly find topics of interest. In the meantime, check out these recommendations from ARCHAEOLOGY magazine editors:
Jarrett A. Lobell โ โThe Great Egyptian Crocodile Mysteryโ
Eric A. Powell – โMaya Superstates” and โThe Beginnings of Mural Paintingโ
Marley Brown – July 1976 Issue
Daniel Weiss – โImages of the Ice Ageโ
Benjamin Leonard – โGolden House of an Emperorโ
Malin Grunberg Banyasz – โNaples Undergroundโ

Society members will need to be logged in to the AIA website to view any digital issue in the archive. Access is available via “My Account” or from links on this page, once logged in. If you need to recover your username or password, please contact the Membership Department at membership@archaeological.org or (857) 305-9351.
Once you enter the archive from the AIA website, you will have access for 24 hours from that device. After that time, you will need to login and access again from your AIA account dashboard.
