Aims & Scope

Since its appearance, the journal has been positioning itself as supranational and interstate one.

Its goal is to establish links and unite academic activities in archaeology and cultural anthropology in the whole world and, specifically, in the post-Soviet space.

Stratum plus facilitates professional communication between a wide circle of specialists in archaeology, anthropology and other auxiliary historical disciplines, as well as enables familiarization of readers worldwide with recent academic research and developments.

They include results of analytical research, interpretations and high-quality publication of new sources.

Contributions on history, ethnology, numismatics, epigraphics and other auxiliary historical disciplines are accepted along with papers on archaeology and cultural anthropology.
