Ethnohistory

Aims & Scope

Ethnohistory reflects the wide range of current scholarship inspired by anthropological and historical approaches to the human condition.

Of particular interest are those analyses and interpretations that seek to make evident the experience, organization, and identities of indigenous, diasporic, and minority peoples that otherwise elude the histories and anthropologies of nations, states, and colonial empires.

The journal publishes work from the disciplines of geography, literature, sociology, and archaeology, as well as anthropology and history.

It welcomes theoretical and cross-cultural discussion of ethnohistorical materials and recognizes the wide range of academic disciplines.
