One Off Journal Issues: Histoire urbaine

Histoire urbaine
ISBN 2914350104

La Société Française d’Histoire Urbaine a tenu son assemblée constitutive le 21 novembre 1998. Cette société est une association (loi 1901) dont les statuts sont déposés à la préfecture de Paris. Elle a pour vocation de rassembler tous ceux qui abordent le fait urbain dans son historicité. Elle se définit par conséquent moins par un ancrage disciplinaire que par des pratiques scientifiques communes. Elle a pour objectif de favoriser les échanges et les débats entre ses membres et de promouvoir la connaissance et la diffusion de l’Histoire urbaine.

While it occasionally has contributions on antiquity, readers of AWOL are directed in particular to n° 10, 2004/2:

Opendig: Open Access Archaeological Data

opendig

At opendig.org we are endeavoring to offer a place for any archaeological excavation to host their dig notes online.

Imagine a place where you can search not only your own site for information, but also sites in the same region, same time period, or just limit it to two or three neighboring sites. This is what we hope to create, but this can only happen with your participation. If you’d like to come on board and host your notes here or if you already have an online database setup, please let us know so we can link to it, and if you have it setup with a RESTful XML resource, then we’ll go ahead and add it to our search capabilities.

opendig.org grew out of the project that was created to get Tall al-’Umayri’s dig database online. The idea came to me that it would be a good place to offer room for other projects’ databases if they were interested. The team would love to see this list grow in the near future!

Open Access Journal: as. Archäologie der Schweiz ; Archéologie suisse ; Archeologia svizzera

as. Archäologie der Schweiz ; Archéologie suisse ; Archeologia svizzera

The magazine as. is published quarterly in three languages and provides information about the latest discoveries, research results, exhibitions, experimental archaeology and much more and is written in a style that is easily understood by laypeople. Each issue is dedicated to a different core theme. There is a special edition on a region or a topic every year.

The journal is the official newsletter of the Swiss Archaeological Society (formerly: the Society for Pre- and Protohistory, SGUF), which has been published since 1937 under the titles "Ur-Schweiz" (Prehistoric Switzerland), "Helvetia Archaeologica" and "Mitteilungsblatt SGUF" (SGUF Newsletter). After the Helvetia Archaeologica split off in 1976 to become an independent journal, the "Mitteilungsblatt SGUF" first appeared in its present-day form under the name "Archäologie der Schweiz" (Archaeology of Switzerland). "Archäologie Schweiz" (Archaeology Switzerland) (until 2005: "Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Ur- und Frühgeschichte" - Swiss Society for Pre - and Protohistory), founded in 1907, is a society with members in every linguistic region in Switzerland. A good half are amateurs with an interest in archaeology, the rest are experts, students and other interested bodies.

Today, Archaeology Switzerland concentrates on two areas: firstly, communicating results to all interested parties, and secondly, carrying out archaeological projects involving multiple Swiss cantons.
