Aims & Scope

From the outset, the aim was to initiate an open and continuous exchange of information among different countries, thus prompting the creation of an international Scientific Committee.

Representatives of the major Italian and foreign institutes interested in archaeological computing agreed to become members.

A qualified Editorial board also assures a continuous flow of information and a profitable exchange of data.

The journal covers three distinct parts.

The first considers methodological approaches: it collects articles concerning theoretical aspects of archaeological computing as well as reports on programmes conducted by dedicated international institutions.

The main section contains articles on various computer applications, such as databases, Geographical Information Systems, quantitative methods, expert systems, computer graphics, image processing, multimedia and web tools.

A section is also dedicated to the automatic processing of documentary sources.

The third aspect of the journal is characterised by book reviews and bibliographic news, with the aim to provide readers with an up-to-date source of documentation.

Special thematic issues and Conference Proceedings have also been included.
