Utah Archaeology annually publishes research relevant to the archaeology (both prehistoric and historic) of Utah. Articles must be factual with some archaeological application. We seek submissions from authors affiliated with government agencies, cultural resource management firms, museums, academic institutions, students, and avocational archaeologists equally. Authors submitting manuscripts are requested to follow Society for American Archaeology (SAA) style (see Style Guide American Antiquity 48:429-442). The most recent version of the SAA Style Guide can be found on the SAA website.
Article categories include:
-
Articles – Synthetic manuscripts, reports of analysis, overviews, and reviews of past research. -
The Avocationalist’s Corner: Topical articles written for the nonspecialist. Articles for this section are encouraged from avocational and professionals archaeologists alike. -
Reports, notes, and comments – Shorter manuscripts including descriptive reports on focused topics; notes or points of interest with a minimum of interpretive discussion; comments on current issues or previously published work. Comments on previously published works will be submitted to the author of that work for review and reply. -
Photo/illustrative essays – Photo or illustration based articles with descriptive and/or interpretive text to supplement the visual media. -
