About this Journal
Scottish Archaeological Journal publishes work which furthers the study of the archaeology of Scotland and neighbouring regions from the earliest prehistory to the present. The journal includes a range of papers reporting on fieldwork, discussion of museum collections and consideration of the social and intellectual context of Scottish archaeology. In addition to documenting new discoveries, the journal promotes scholarly discussion and debate by encouraging the submission of papers of synthesis and analysis.
Book reviews, a distinctive feature of the journal since its establishment (as the Glasgow Archaeological Journal) in 1969, provide a critical perspective on Scottish archaeology and a well-established forum for scholarly debate. In addition to books, recent volumes of the journal have reviewed new museums, exhibitions and research on Scotland published in periodical literature.
Published by Edinburgh University Press on behalf of the Glasgow Archaeological Society.

Society
The Glasgow Archaeological Society was founded in 1856 to promote the study of archaeology with a special emphasis on western Scotland.
The Society organises a programme of popular lectures held in the Boyd Orr Building, Glasgow University at 7.30 pm on the third Thursday of the month (October to April). The lectures are open to the public free of charge.
The Society also arranges day conferences and excursions and publishes a biannual Bulletin of current notes and news, which welcomes submissions and notices. The Society provides research grants to members of the society. In 1907 James D G Dalrymple endowed the Society with bequest to support a lectureship on aspects of European archaeology. The Dalrymple Curators utilise the bequest to support an annual series of lectures by eminent archaeologists. The Journal is published with the financial support of the Dalrymple Fund. To join contact the Membership Secretary (Mrs Susan Hunter, 69 Craighill Drive, Glasgow, G76 7TD.)
