The Archäologische Anzeiger ( AA ) is one of the most important German-language specialist journals in the field of archeology .
The Archäologische Anzeiger first appeared in 1889 as a supplement to the yearbook of the German Archaeological Institute (JdI). It has been published as an independent journal since 1976, initially with four partial issues by Verlag Walter de Gruyter in Berlin until 2001 , and since then in two bound half-volumes per year (2001 to 2007 by Verlag Philipp von Zabern , since 2008 by Hirmer Verlag ). Since 2008, in addition to the first half volume of the year, a further supplement has been published with the annual report of the German Archaeological Institute (DAI). In addition, the Archäologische Anzeiger has been in color since then. It is published as one of three periodicals by the Berlin headquarters of the German Archaeological Institute. The editorial office is located in the Berlin headquarters of the DAI. The editors are the president of the DAI, Friederike Fless , and the general secretary of the organization, Philipp von Rummel . Co-editors are the directors of the departments and commissions of the DAI, currently Ortwin Dally (Rome), Katja Sporn (Athens), Stephan Seidlmayer (Cairo), Felix Pirson (Istanbul), Dirce Marzoli (Madrid), Ricardo Eichmann (Berlin), Svend Hansen (Berlin), Eszter Bánffy (Frankfurt), Christof Schuler (Munich) and Burkhard Vogt (Bonn). Orhan Bingöl , Friederike Fless, Enzo Lippolis , Joseph Maran , Brian Rose , Alan Shapiro and Hilke Thür are members of the magazine's advisory board .
Only articles, reports and smaller communications are published in the journal. The articles mostly deal with reports on excavations or excavation projects of the DAI. In addition, research articles or excavation reports from excavations that were not carried out by the DAI are recorded. Primarily, but not exclusively, the magazine deals with the cultures of the Mediterranean and the Middle East from prehistoric times to late antiquity . In the last few years in particular, the profile has shifted more and more towards global archeology. In addition, annual reports of the DAI and the Archaeological Society of Berlin as well as a list of passed doctorates are published once a year and DAI scholarships are advertised.
The second half volume 2004 was a special edition for the 175th anniversary of the DAI. Among other things, it published reports on the legal status of the German Archaeological Institute, including legal opinions, the rules of procedure of the DAI and a report on the anniversary celebrations.
