Instructions for Authors
Scope
The Journal of African Archaeology (JAA) is an international peer-reviewed periodical. It publishes original papers addressing recent research and developments in African archaeology and related disciplines. The journal's main purpose is to provide scholars and students with an African forum for discussing relevant topics on the cultural dynamics and material remains of past African societies.
Ethical and Legal Conditions
The publication of a manuscript in a peer-reviewed work is expected to follow standards of ethical behavior for all parties involved in the act of publishing: authors, editors, and reviewers. Authors, editors, and reviewers should thoroughly acquaint themselves with Brill’s publication ethics, which may be downloaded here: brill.com/page/ethics/publication-ethics-cope-compliance.
Online Submission
The Journal of African Archaeology (JAA) now uses online submission only. Authors should submit their manuscript online via the Editorial Manager (EM) online submission system at: editorialmanager.com/jaabrill.
First-time users of EM need to register first. Go to the website and click on the "Register Now" link in the login menu. Enter the information requested. During registration, you can fill in your username and password. If you should forget this username and password, click on the "send login details" link in the login section, and enter your e-mail address exactly as you entered it when you registered. Your access codes will then be e-mailed to you.
A revised document is uploaded the same way as the initial submission. The system automatically generates an electronic (PDF) proof, which is then used for reviewing purposes. All correspondence, including the editor’s request for revision and final decision, is sent by e-mail.
Double-blinded Peer Review
JAA uses a double-blind peer review system, which means that manuscript author(s) do not know who the reviewers are, and that reviewers do not know the names of the author(s). When you submit your article via Editorial Manager, you will be asked to submit a separate title page that includes the full title of the manuscript, the names and complete contact details of all authors, the abstract, keywords, and any acknowledgement texts. This page will not be accessible to the referees. All other files (manuscript, figures, tables, etc.) should not contain any information concerning author names, institutions, etc. The names of these files and the document properties should also be anonymized.

Contact Address
For any questions or problems relating to your manuscript, please contact the Editor, Kate Grillo, at: kgrillo@ufl.edu.
Inquiries about book reviews should be sent to the Book Review Editor, Jonathan R. Walz, at: jwalz.us@gmail.com.

Unicode
Use of special signs and fonts: please use a Unicode font such as the Brill if possible. Please let us know in advance if you plan to use any special characters or fonts.
Submission Requirements
Language
Articles and book reviews should preferably be written in English, but contributions in other languages, including French and German, can be considered. Please contact the editorial staff if planning to submit a manuscript in a language other than English.
Fonts, Transliteration and Orthography
Where possible, all examples from languages not using the Latin alphabet, should be transliterated using an accepted system of transliteration. For more specific guidelines, see the Appendix. Authors should use their chosen system consistently throughout the manuscript. Where no standard system has been adopted in the literature (e.g., examples of certain dialects never described before), use symbols to represent sounds that are as close to the IPA symbols as possible, and give explanations where appropriate. Where a transliteration system is already used in the literature, no new transliteration system invented by the author will be accepted.
Length
Research articles accepted for publication are typically under 10,000 words, including the footnotes and references.. Authors interested in preparing either longer manuscripts or shorter research communications should consult with the editorial staff prior to submittal.
Manuscript Structure
Manuscripts should be submitted with 1.5 line spacing, 1-inch margins, and numbered lines for reviewers if possible. Documents may be submitted as Microsoft Word or PDF files.
Articles should be assembled in the following order: a separate title page, and then a single file with abstract, keywords, introduction, content-related sections (each section with an appropriated heading text, not numbers), conclusions, acknowledgements, appendixes, reference list, tables, figures with captions.
The journal reserves the right to ensure that contributions conform to its style. Please avoid the use of justification and bold-face or underlined type. Do not hyphenate words at the end of a line. TAB should be restricted to a paragraph indent. For general rules on style, see the Chicago Manual of Style (chicagomanualofstyle.org, 15th ed., University of Chicago Press, 2003, or the most recent edition) or the MLA Style Guide.
Title Page
− A separate file consisting of the title page should contain the title of the paper, the name(s) and affiliation(s) of the author(s), and the name, e-mail address and postal address of the author to whom correspondence, proofs, and off-prints should be sent.
− Title in roman type (capitals for the first letter of main words) should be as brief and informative as possible.
− Authors’ names in roman type as normally used by the author, first name followed by family name, names separated by commas and between the last two names by ‘and’, references to affiliations as superscripts, in ascending order (e.g., Peter Breiner1 and Oric Basirov,2 Peter Breiner 1, 2 ).
− Affiliations where the work has been done should be indicated under the authors in roman type.
When the authors are based at different organizations, this should be indicated in superscript in front of the organizations (e.g., 1University of Leiden –corresponding to the references under ‘authors’).
− Postal and e-mail addresses of the corresponding author must be added.
Abstract
The other required file should begin with the article title (but no author list) at the top, followed by a short abstract in English (100 to 150 words), which should mention all the principal facts and conclusions set forth in the paper.
Keywords
Four to six keywords (in lower case and separated by semi-colons) should be added, for indexing purposes.
