Journal of Archaeological Method and Theory presents timely and authoritative `topical syntheses', original articles that critically assess and integrate research on a specific subject in archaeological method or theory. More than a bibliographic essay, each article creates a framework for synthesizing findings, offers incisive commentary on previous work, and identifies research priorities.

The journal includes articles on the history of archaeology, method- or theory-focused case studies, and significant explorations on the cutting edge. Written by experts, the articles benefit an international audience of archaeologists, students of archaeology, and practitioners of closely related disciplines.
