Focus and Scope

Archivo Español de Arqueología is a scientific journal published by CSIC and edited by the Instituto de Historia at CCHS, that publishes original articles on Archaeology that focus on their material, literary, epigraphic and numismatic sources. Its field of interest includes Mediterranean and European cultures from Protohistoric times to the Early Middle Ages and is flexibly open to upcoming cultural realities and border times. The journal is divided into three sections: Articles, which include both general reflections and work on specific topics; News, for short contributions on developments in archaeological research; and Reviews.

Founded in 1940 by Antonio García y Bellido in 1940 as a specialized branch of Archivo Español de Arte y Arqueología (1925), it began to be available online in 2007, in PDF format, maintaining printed edition until 2021. That year it became an electronic journal publishing in PDF, HTML and XML-JATS. Contents of previous issues are also available in PDF files.
