Journal Guide

Peer-reviewed, lively and highly interdisciplinary, Time & Mind presents new perspectives on landscape, monuments, people and culture. The journal features scholarly work addressing cognitive aspects of cross-related disciplines such as archaeology, anthropology and psychology that can shape our understanding of archaeological sites, landscapes and pre-modern worldviews. It also explores how modern minds create images of the past, and addresses how new findings about prehistory can inspire current research on the brain and consciousness.

Vegetation History and Archaeobotany publishes research papers, review articles and short contributions of high quality from Europe, the Americas and around the world. It covers the entire field of vegetation history, exploring the development of flora and vegetation during the Holocene (and also the Pleistocene) era, and includes related subjects such as palaeoecology. The journal places interest on human impact upon the natural environment in prehistoric and medieval times. This is reflected in pollen diagrams as well as in plant macroremains from archaeological contexts. Recent topics have included vegetation, fire and climate dynamics as indicated by pollen and charcoal analysis; preliminary results from a dendroecological study of a sub-fossil pine woodland in NW Germany; the significance of low pollen accumulation rates in estimation tree population, and more. The Editor-in-Chief is Felix Bittmann, Niedersächsisches Insitut für historische Küstenforschung, Wilhelmshaven, Germany.

Vigiliae Christianae publishes articles and short notes of a cultural, historical, linguistic or philological nature on early Christian literature written after the New Testament, as well as on Christian epigraphy and archaeology.

World Archaeology was established specifically to deal with archaeology on a world-wide multiperiod basis. Thirty years after it was founded it remains a leader in its field. The first three of the year's quarterly issues are each dedicated to a particular theme of current interest. The fourth issue, Debates in World Archaeology, is a forum for debate, discussion and comment. All papers adopt a broad comparative approach, looking at important issues on a global scale. The members of the editorial board and the advisory board represent a wide range of interests and expertise and this ensures that the papers published in World Archaeology cover a wide variety of subject areas. Recent issues illustrate the variety of material published in World Archaeology and have included volumes dedicated to new developments in archaeological science, the application of social theory to archaeology, the archaeology of art and major syntheses of such important topics as trade and exchange. Future issues will range just as widely. Back issues of World Archaeology are available through JSTOR Recent Issues: * The Archaeology of Buildings * The Archaeology of Water * The Archaeology of Caves, Shelters and the Deep Karst * Tradition * Elemental Archaeologies * Experimental Archaeology 'World Archaeology is a pleasure to read, in two senses; layout and typeface are particularly easy on the eye, while the articles are clearly and attractively written, usually without waffle or jargon. World Archaeology has carved out a place for itself as one of the very few British archaeological journals since Antiquity to have adopted a truly international approach to the subject, covering all periods, areas and aspects of the human past. Its unique thematic design should ensure that its importance will be maintained for decades to come'.
