Digital Applications in Archaeology and Cultural Heritage (DAACH) is an on-line, peer-reviewed journal in which scholars can publish 3D digital models of the world's cultural heritage sites, monuments, and palaeoanthropological remains accompanied by associated academic articles.The journal aims both to preserve digital cultural heritage models and to provide access to them for the scholarly community to facilitate the academic debate. DAACH offers scholars the opportunity of publishing their models online with full interactivity so that users can explore them at will. It is unique in that its focus is on the application of 3D modeling to cultural heritage. DAACH will provide full peer-review for all 3D models, not just the text, 2D renderings or video fly-throughs, and requires all models to be accompanied by metadata, documentation, and a related article, explaining the history of the subject and its state of preservation, as well as an account of the modeling project itself. The journal focuses on scholarship that either promotes the application of 3D technologies to the fields of archaeology, art and architectural history, and palaeoanthropology or uses 3D technology to make a significant contribution to the study of built structures, works of art or palaeoanthropological remains.Digital Applications in Archaeology and Cultural Heritage will also consider papers dealing with processing of digital data acquired by geophysical prospection in archaeological sites (eg applications of 3D or 2D mapping of buried monuments), digital signals from luminescence measurements, multispectral imaging techniques and processing of atomic force microscopic data applied to archaeomaterials.The provision of a 3D model is not compulsory for an article to be published in this journal.

Documenta Praehistorica is an international journal that focuses on interdisciplinary research in cognition and materialities of prehistoric cultures, archaeogenetic studies, palaeodemography, population dynamics and cultural trajectories in prehistory, settlement and landscape dynamics, climate anomalies, radiocarbon dating, palaeodietary reconstruction based on stable isotope analysis, chemistry in archaeology and palaeoenvironmental studies. The main strength of the journal is that it provides an opportunity for the publication of diverse approaches, theories and specific case studies, while maintaining a coherent editorial policy in addressing significant topics and studies relating to Eurasian prehistory.

Environmental Archaeology: The Journal of Human Palaeoecology aims to publish contributions on all aspects of environmental archaeology, from methodology to synthesis and theory. Environmental Archaeology is an international peer-reviewed periodical which welcomes contributions that consider the interaction between humans and their environment in the archaeological and historical past. This broad scope embraces papers covering a range of environmental specialisms within archaeology, such as archaeobotany, archaeozoology (both vertebrate and invertebrate), palynology, geoarchaeology, biological anthropology, as well as more synthetic and theoretical approaches to the past human environment. Assemblage and site reports are not encouraged unless these can demonstrate significant new insights in environmental archaeology. Contributions may take the form of substantial research papers or shorter reports and may include, for instance, new techniques, philosophical discussions, current controversies and suggestions for new research. The journal also provides its readership with critical appraisal of recent academic scholarship through its regular books review section.

Interesada en dar a conocer el rico y complejo universo de saberes, creencias y prácticas mayas desde el surgimiento de esta cultura hasta la actualidad, la revista admite trabajos de corte histórico en sus distintas manifestaciones, y antropológico en todas sus disciplinas (Arqueología, Antropologías Física y Social, Etnología, Lingüística, Etnohistoria), Epigrafía, Iconografía, etc., sin desdeñar la publicación de textos dedicados a otros campos de la ciencia que se vinculen con el mundo maya. Así, da cuenta, entre otras cosas, del estudio estilístico de los monumentos, la astronomía y sus nexos con manifestaciones culturales como la arquitectura, los códices y los calendarios; informes de exploraciones arqueológicas; lectura y discusión de inscripciones jeroglíficas, textos prehispánicos, coloniales y actuales de y sobre los mayas; ensayos sobre organización social, economía y religión (mitos, rituales, etc.) de los mayas de ayer y hoy, etcétera.

Desde sus primeros números se ha enriquecido con la participación de especialistas de la talla de Alberto Ruz Lhuillier, J. Eric Thompson, Alfonso Villa Rojas, George Kubler, Gordon Willey, Evon Z. Vogt, William Holland, Alfredo Barrera Vásquez, Calixta Guiteras Holmes, César Lizardi Ramos y muchos más, dando fe de que Estudios de Cultura Maya es un foro científico y humanístico de alta calidad abierto a todos los mayistas del mundo.
