Canadian Journal of Archeology / Journal Canadien d'Archéologie

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Canadian Journal of Archeology / Journal Canadien d'Archéologie is a specialist journal of Canadian archeology that has been published since 1977. It is published by the Canadian Archaeological Association , founded in 1968 , which published a series of bulletins from 1969 onwards, from which the journal emerged. It is based in Victoria (British Columbia) , but the aim of the journal is to represent the archeology of all of Canada.

Most of the articles in the journal are written in English, but always offer a French summary. Nevertheless, especially in the first few years, francophone authorship was severely underrepresented. Of the 183 articles from 1977 to 1991, 175 were by English-speaking scholars, and six of 138 reviews were in French. It was not until 1993 that the first bilingual contribution appeared, namely La Réalité et la Fiction: Une Nouvelle Façon d'Écrire l'Archéologie by Alison Wylie. The 2016 edition published Pour une typologie stylistique chrono-thématique des faïences françaises retrouvées dans les anciennes colonies d'Amérique (XVIIe – XVIIIe s.) By Laetitia Métreau, Jean Rosen, Caroline Girard and Réginald Auger.
