The Journal of Computer Applications in Archaeology focuses on the application of computational methods and digital technologies to archaeological research. This includes areas such as machine learning for data analysis, agent-based modeling for simulating past behaviors and environmental interactions, 3D modeling and virtual reality for heritage representation and analysis, and spatial analysis techniques. The journal also covers the development of digital infrastructures for archaeological data, such as chronometric databases and information networks, and the use of computational tools for site discovery, preservation, and the analysis of archaeological materials and landscapes.
