The Journal of Conflict Archaeology
We are pleased to announce the establishment of ‘The Journal of Conflict
Archaeology’, to be published annually by Brill Academic Publishers. This
international journal will provide a high profile, peer reviewed means of
publication for those working in any of the fields grouped under the
umbrella of conflict archaeology.
Fields of interest will include battlefield archaeology (the primary
research interest of the managing editors), all other types of military
archaeology, the archaeology of industrial and popular protest, contested
landscapes and monuments, class conflict, the origins of conflict, forensic
applications in war-zones and human rights cases etc.
The journal will carry papers on current research, subject and period
overviews, fieldwork and excavation reports - interim and final reports,
artefact studies, scientific applications, technique evaluations, conference
summaries, book reviews etc.
Potential contributors should in the first instance provide the editors with
a brief abstract (c. 200 words) of their proposed submission. A guide to
format, text and illustration conventions and other submission requirements
is currently being prepared and will be available on request in the near
future.
Final submissions, including all illustrations, must be made by the end of
January 2005, with the first edition of the volume appearing in November
2005. Peer review and checking of proofs will take during the interim
period.
It is probable that volume 2 (appearing late 2006) will be partially themed
(no more than 50% of total content). The first volume will however be
un-themed and provide a cross section of the various types of research
currently being undertaken in the field of conflict archaeology.
Tony Pollard and Iain Banks (Managing Editors)
