ARCHAEOLOGIA AUSTRIACA Guidelines for English-language Manuscripts By submitting an article to Archaeologia Austriaca through the online system authors declare that the manuscript is complete and that the exploitation rights to the work have not been exercised elsewhere either fully or partially. Archaeologia Austriaca does not publish articles that have previously been published (in any language) or are concurrently submitted for publication elsewhere. Authors have to possess the copyright and/or right to use all parts of the work; this especially applies to images in the work (authors are themselves responsible for obtaining the permission for publication and reproductions from copyright holders for all illustrations). Authors must properly cite publications and acknowledge non-authors who have helped in the development of the work. Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the work. These persons should be listed as co-authors. The main or the corresponding author is responsible that all co-authors have agreed to submission of the final version. • Text files must be submitted as digital documents (ideally as ‘word.doc/docx’). You can use the ArchA style sheet (‘ArchA Formatvorlage, Stylesheet’) when preparing your text. If you are not familiar with the use of the style sheet submit an ordinary ‘word.doc/docx’ (Times New Roman or Arial 12 pt) and apply as little formatting as possible. Do not CAPITALIZE and do not underline words (for highlighting words use ‘inverted commas’), no indentations, no word-division. • Tables should be submitted as separate ‘word.doc/docx’ files labelled: <ArchA_author_Table_01>, <ArchA_author_Table_02>, etc. • Figures and plates have to be submitted as separated files: allowed formats TIF, AI, PDF, PSD, EPS and labelled: <ArchA_author_Figure_01>, <ArchA_author_Figure_02>, etc.; <ArchA_author_Plate_01>, <ArchA_author_Plate_02>, etc. Save black and white images in greyscale mode and colour images in CMYK (not RGB). Resolution: Line drawings: between 800dpi and 1200dpi. Photographs: between 300dpi and 450dpi. Set the precise measurement at which you wish the figures and plates to be printed: Width: preferably 80 mm, 120 mm or 170 mm Height: up to 236 mm. Maximum figure and plate size 170 mm × 236 mm. (In the case of multi-line figure or plate legends – one line covers approx. 20 words – the figure height needs to be shortened by 3 mm per line; e.g. legend with three lines, max. image height 230 mm). Indicate the most appropriate place where the figures shall be inserted into the text, e.g. by writing <INSERT FIG. 1 HERE> at the end of a paragraph and in a separate line. • The main text file should contain the following information (in the following order): o Title of contribution o Author(s) first and surname(s) o English abstract (min. 100 ‒ max. 200 words) (if possible also German translation) o 4 to 7 keywords in English (if possible also German translation) o Main text (including headings, subheadings and footnotes) o If applicable: Acknowledgments (following the main text) o References o Name, affiliation, address and e-mail o List of table, figure and plate captions (including credits) 1 ARCHAEOLOGIA AUSTRIACA • ATTENTION: please notify us if you are using SPECIAL CHARACTERS (or FONTS), as there might be massive correction problems otherwise! Format and Style Headings: Nouns and adjectives capitalized No footnote numbers in titles First letters capitalized (e.g. Times of Change: Greece during the 4th Millennium BC) If possible (especially when not using the style sheet) number the headings and subheadings in following order: 1. 1.1. 1.2. 2. 2.1. 2.1.1. 2.1.2. 3. etc. Text Style: UK spelling: labour, modelling, centre; -ize/-iza endings possible: digitize, civilization.

Genus and species names are also italicized: Spondylus sp., Spondylus gaederopus). Capitalization: Places: Names of mountains, rivers, oceans, etc. are capitalized, along with the generic terms (e.g. lake, mountain, river, valley) when used as part of a name. When a generic term is used descriptively rather than as part of the name, when used alone, or when plural, it is lowercased. the Danube River, the river Danube; the Rhine and Danube rivers the Danube Valley, the valley of the Danube, the Danube Basin Lake Hallstatt, Franchthi Cave but: central Anatolia, southeast Europe, western Europe in the east, in the central Aegean 2 ARCHAEOLOGIA AUSTRIACA Types: Capitalize the names of archaeological classes, but place generic terms in lowercase. the Velim type, the Velim fibula type, fibulae of the Velim type not: the ‘type Velim’ Pottery: pattern-decorated jar, rolled rim bowl But: Corded Ware, Heavy Burnished Ware Plants and animals: Capitalize taxonomic names of generic and higher rank. order: Artiodactyla family: Bovidae genus: Bison species: Pinus ponderosa, Pinus sp.

Use et al. for more than three authors: 1 RUSS-POPA, GRÖMER 2014. 2 POMBERGER, MÜHLHANS, REUTER 2014. 3 STÖLLNER et al. 2006. A period and a dash separate several citations from each other, e.g. VITELLI 1999, 68–70, 73‒74. – REBAY-SALISBURY 2014, 61−62. A dash connects consecutive pages, figures, plates, e.g. BERNARDI 1970, Pls. 172‒178. – ALRAM- STERN 2007, 2–3. A comma separates year from pages and sets of consecutive pages, pages from figures, e.g. ALRAM- STERN 2007, 2–3, 17–29. An “and” separates pages from figures and plates: MANSEL 1972, 70 and Fig. 29.
