About the Journal

Archäologische Mitteilungen aus Iran und Turan (AMIT) is an interdisciplinary scholarly journal published annually since 1996 by the Eurasia Department of the German Archaeological Institute (EA DAI) and is peer-reviewed.

The journal is dedicated to the archaeology of Iran and Turan in the broadest sense, including Iran, the Caucasus, Central Asia, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India, as well as China and Japan. All periods of prehistory are covered, from the Palaeolithic to the Middle Ages. Studies on modern history, ethnography, archaeometallurgy, bioarchaeology, environmental history, geoarchaeology and other interdisciplinary topics are also accepted if they are relevant to archaeology.
