Mission Statement
Technical Briefs in Historical Archaeology
Technical Briefs in Historical Archaeology is an electronic peer-reviewed publication series devoted to the fast dissemination of shorter specialized technical papers in historical archaeology, maritime archaeology, material culture technology and materials conservation. Submissions are high quality contributions of no more than 3000 words of immediate and long term relevance to the SHA membership and the profession in general. All aspects of the publication process, from submission through paper review to final publication are done online. Submission requirements, format, and copy-editing conform to the SHA Style Guide. After final acceptance by the Technical Briefs Editor, papers are published on the SHA server in HTML and PDF formats with a series link to the SHA homepage. As they are published, papers will be paginated sequentially within a numbered volume based on a calendar year. A Table of Contents will be published annually in the SHA Newsletter.
