The Austrian Archaeological Institute has a comprehensive publication portfolio that covers all the Institute's core areas and scientific disciplines. Most of journals and series can look back on a long tradition. Over the decades, they came to the current OeAI through mergers of commissions and institutes. In order to make their affiliation with the – in 2021 newly founded – OeAI visible and to increase the recognition value, the institute’s publications will gradually be given a new look from 2025.
The Publications Department coordinates the editing, proofreading and book production of all journals and publication series published by the Institute. Furthermore, the publications team supports authors in the preparation of manuscripts, both in administrative matters and in the acquisition of funding. In close cooperation with the publishers, this ensures an efficient production process.
All publication series and journals are subject to a peer review process according to international standards, which, in addition to the respective editorial boards, guarantees the high scientific quality of the manuscripts. The OeAI produces analogue and digital publications, with the aim of making all publications accessible.
Self-commitment
All publications of the OeAI are subject to the rules of good scientific practice as developed and published by the Austrian Agency for Scientific Integrity. Furthermore, the OeAI is subject to the international practice and the recommendations of the Archaeological Council at the OeAW to refrain from first publication of ancient objects of unknown origin.
Guidelines
Guidelines for writing and submitting manuscripts can be found in the respective journals and series.
