About this journal

The Society for Medieval Archaeology exists to further the study of the period from the 5th to the 16th century AD by publishing a journal of international standing dealing primarily with the archaeological evidence, a monograph series, and by other means of communication such as its newsletter and website, holding regular meetings and arranging conferences. The Society maintains a website at: https://medievalarchaeology.co.uk/

Medieval Archaeology welcomes original submissions of international significance, or national significance and of international interest, which match the objectives of the Society. While we maintain a special concern for the medieval archaeology of Britain and Ireland, we also provide a forum for the discussion of important finds and developments within this period from anywhere in the world, serving as a medium for co-ordinating the work of archaeologists and that of historians and scholars in any other discipline relevant to this field. Our International Advisory Board support the Editor in the delivery of a widely respected, peer-reviewed journal whose content is of international significance and interest. In addition, they act as ambassadors for the Society, aiming to increase international readership of its journal (and other publications) and to increase its membership base.
