Documenta Praehistorica is an international journal that focuses on interdisciplinary research in cognition and materialities of prehistoric cultures, archaeogenetic studies, palaeodemography, population dynamics and cultural trajectories in prehistory, settlement and landscape dynamics, climate anomalies, radiocarbon dating, palaeodietary reconstruction based on stable isotope analysis, chemistry in archaeology and palaeoenvironmental studies. The main strength of the journal is that it provides an opportunity for the publication of diverse approaches, theories and specific case studies, while maintaining a coherent editorial policy in addressing significant topics and studies relating to Eurasian prehistory.

Environmental Archaeology: The Journal of Human Palaeoecology aims to publish contributions on all aspects of environmental archaeology, from methodology to synthesis and theory. Environmental Archaeology is an international peer-reviewed periodical which welcomes contributions that consider the interaction between humans and their environment in the archaeological and historical past. This broad scope embraces papers covering a range of environmental specialisms within archaeology, such as archaeobotany, archaeozoology (both vertebrate and invertebrate), palynology, geoarchaeology, biological anthropology, as well as more synthetic and theoretical approaches to the past human environment. Assemblage and site reports are not encouraged unless these can demonstrate significant new insights in environmental archaeology. Contributions may take the form of substantial research papers or shorter reports and may include, for instance, new techniques, philosophical discussions, current controversies and suggestions for new research. The journal also provides its readership with critical appraisal of recent academic scholarship through its regular books review section.

Interesada en dar a conocer el rico y complejo universo de saberes, creencias y prácticas mayas desde el surgimiento de esta cultura hasta la actualidad, la revista admite trabajos de corte histórico en sus distintas manifestaciones, y antropológico en todas sus disciplinas (Arqueología, Antropologías Física y Social, Etnología, Lingüística, Etnohistoria), Epigrafía, Iconografía, etc., sin desdeñar la publicación de textos dedicados a otros campos de la ciencia que se vinculen con el mundo maya. Así, da cuenta, entre otras cosas, del estudio estilístico de los monumentos, la astronomía y sus nexos con manifestaciones culturales como la arquitectura, los códices y los calendarios; informes de exploraciones arqueológicas; lectura y discusión de inscripciones jeroglíficas, textos prehispánicos, coloniales y actuales de y sobre los mayas; ensayos sobre organización social, economía y religión (mitos, rituales, etc.) de los mayas de ayer y hoy, etcétera.

Desde sus primeros números se ha enriquecido con la participación de especialistas de la talla de Alberto Ruz Lhuillier, J. Eric Thompson, Alfonso Villa Rojas, George Kubler, Gordon Willey, Evon Z. Vogt, William Holland, Alfredo Barrera Vásquez, Calixta Guiteras Holmes, César Lizardi Ramos y muchos más, dando fe de que Estudios de Cultura Maya es un foro científico y humanístico de alta calidad abierto a todos los mayistas del mundo.

ethnos is a peer-reviewed journal, which publishes original papers promoting theoretical, methodological and empirical developments in the discipline of socio-cultural anthropology. ethnos provides a forum where a wide variety of different anthropologies can gather together and enter into critical exchange. ethnos encourages submissions both from scholars working in anthropology and those in other disciplines whose work can make a substantial contribution to topics of concern to anthropologists. ethnos publishes original papers that promote theoretical, methodological and empirical developments within the discipline of socio-cultural anthropology. Please submit Manuscripts electronically at the Ethnos Manuscript Central site. Books for review can be sent to: ethnos, Museum of Ethnography, Box 27140, S-102 52 Stockholm, Sweden Peer Review Policy: All research articles published in ethnos have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.

Frontiers of Architectural Research is an international journal that publishes original research papers, review articles, and case studies to promote rapid communication and exchange among scholars, architects, and engineers. It introduces and reflects significant and pioneering achievements in the field of architecture research. The subject areas include the main branches of architecture. Papers are dealing with architectural design and theory, architectural science and technology, urban planning, landscaping architecture, existing building renovation and architectural heritage conservation. The journal encourages papers to take a rigorous scientific approach and apply state-of-the-art technology. All published papers will reflect the original thoughts of researcher and basic theories, model, computing and design in architecture. High standard papers dealing with the social aspects of architecture are also welcome. The journal is strictly peer-reviewed and accepts only original manuscripts submitted in English.

Geoarchaeology is an interdisciplinary journal published six times per year (in January, March, May, July, September and November). It presents the results of original research at the methodological and theoretical interface between archaeology and the geosciences and includes within its scope: interdisciplinary work focusing on understanding archaeological sites, their environmental context, and particularly site formation processes and how the analysis of sedimentary records can enhance our understanding of human activity in Quaternary environments. Manuscripts should examine the interrelationship between archaeology and the various disciplines within Quaternary science and the Earth Sciences more generally, including, for example: geology, geography, geomorphology, pedology, climatology, oceanography, geochemistry, geochronology, and geophysics. We also welcome papers that deal with the biological record of past human activity through the analysis of faunal and botanical remains and palaeoecological reconstructions that shed light on past human-environment interactions. The journal also welcomes manuscripts concerning the examination and geological context of human fossil remains as well as papers that employ analytical techniques to advance understanding of the composition and origin or material culture such as, for example, ceramics, metals, lithics, building stones, plasters, and cements.
