Materiale si Cercetari Arheologice

Aims & Scope

Materiale și Cercetări Arheologiceis an annual Romanian journal publishing rigorously peer-reviewed research in all fields of archaeology and related sciences. It addresses both professionals and the wider audience concerned with the interpretation of the archaeological record around the world and provides a forum for both established scholars and the younger generation. In addition to articles containing analyses of archaeological data from excavations, surveys, and laboratory research, the MCA publishes articles about archaeological heritage, history of archaeology, as well as technical and methodological studies. Papers are selected on the basis of originality, importance, interdisciplinary interest, timeliness, accessibility, and original conclusions.

A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.

Based on the Think.Check.Submit framework by DOAJ, COPE & OASPA. All data from verified open sources.

Source: OpenAlex · Each year’s green bar = citations earned by that year’s papers, counted to date — so recent years look lower simply because their papers haven’t had time to be cited yet.
