CALL for ARTICLE MANUSCRIPTS

Journal of Texas Archeology and History

Call for Papers – Volume 8 (2023/2024)

The Journal of Texas Archeology and History.org was established to protect, preserve, and promote archeology and history through public outreach, publishing, and distribution. Our signature work is a peer-reviewed publication that promotes professional and graduate academic level research in the fields of archeology and history regarding a geographic region centered around the State of Texas that includes Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and the northern Mexican states of Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo León, and Tamaulipas. We call this region the “Texas Borderlands.”

The JTAH Annual Volume journal is an open-access, online publication whose text is discoverable via Google Scholar and other prominent search engines such as the Index of Texas Archeology (SFASU)and the Portal to Texas History (NTSU). As a publishing venue, it is freely available to authors and readers worldwide. It is word searchable in common Portable Document Format (.PDF) file format and indexed to be discoverable on the internet. We have no deadline for authors to meet. Simply submit the completed manuscript to Co-Editors-in-Chief   Dr. J. Kevin Hanselka, and James E. Barrera, M.A. who will begin the peer review processes upon receipt. All submissions should follow SAA Style Guide (2023 version):

Upon completion of peer review, approval by our Co-Editors-in-Chief, and final preparation for publication, individual articles will be published swiftly in the online, website publishing version.  Additionally, articles published online will also appear in our annual online volume; plus will be included in the full-color print version.  Annual J.T.A.H. Volumes close on December 31, and the next volume begins on January 1st of each year.  Occasionally, mid-year editions are published in July.

The online version of the Journal is a 100% digital publication where authors are encouraged to take full advantage of technology to enhance their article through use of features not available in traditional publication formats. These enhancements include: extensive color graphics, high-resolution imagery and photography, video clips and embedded sound bites, 3-D interactive renderings, and hypertext links to outside content and websites. Authors are encouraged to include separate appendixes of supporting data that can be published in the online version and available as a stand-alone digital download.

Additionally, the JTAH.org now publishes a high-quality, full color, print version of its annual volume of peer reviewed research. Print publication is made available through Amazon.com at near direct cost as a service to the research community, authors, and readers who require printed materials.
