Journal of Skyscape Archaeology
Call for Papers

The Journal of Skyscape Archaeology (JSA) is concerned with the role and
importance of the sky in the interpretation of the material record.
Currently, elements of this study can be found separately in the disciplines
of archaeoastronomy, archaeology, cultural astronomy, anthropology and
history. JSA brings them together under the aegis of a new academic journal
in order to promote cross-fertilization towards an understanding of the
cosmologies of the societies who constructed and used the rich
archaeological heritage we study today. Consequently JSA encourages articles
that consider the relationship between material culture, the sky and
society, from a wide range of disciplines. By bringing together current
worldwide research, regardless of period or culture, JSA provides a shared
interdisciplinary forum for skyscape archaeology.

For its second issue, The Journal of Skyscape Archaeology is soliciting
submissions on the relationship between material culture and the sky whether
this be the practice of relating the heavenly bodies and celestial phenomena
to lives and events on earth as evidenced through material monuments and
artefacts or the wider landscape. Approaches can be from many disciplinary
viewpoints, for example, archaeoastronomical, archaeological,
anthropological, historical and ethnographic and we are interested in
obtaining as many voices as possible as long as they reference the sky.

JSA is an international peer-reviewed journal which publishes a variety of
articles. These include regular Research Articles which are research
question or case-study driven and can  run up to 8,000 words in length;
Theory & Methods Articles dealing with methodological and theoretical
aspects of the discipline and which should generally run to about 5,000
words in length; Forums are composed of a series of short 2-3,000 word
responses to a previously circulated question for debate; and Reprints of
key papers in the discipline's history with new commentaries of up to 4,000
words by modern authorities. Book and Conference Reviews of 1-2,000 words in
length will also be published and potential reviewers should contact the
Editors prior to submitting a review. The editors are open to ideas for
Forums, Reprints, Book and Conference Reviews.
Papers should be submitted by February 28th, 2015. Authors will be notified
as soon as possible of the acceptability of their submissions.

Full instructions for submission and Author Guidelines can be found on the
JSA website http://www.equinoxpub.com/JSA.

Queries should be addressed to the editors, Dr Fabio Silva
