Green Open Access

The AJA also supports green open access, or self-archiving. Authors may post a copy of their e-print, or final paginated version published in the journal, in their funding agency’s or institution’s secure digital repository. Any reuse should include an acknowledgment to the AJA and the Archaeological Institute of America and a link to the version of record on JSTOR. Authors should not post the pre-print (original manuscript before peer review and editing) or the post-print (final accepted version; i.e., after peer-review but without AJA editing and typesetting).

Non-Affiliated Repositories

Only the abstract and a link to the version of record on JSTOR should be posted in an institutional repository not affiliated with the AJA author.
