Journal Descriptions
The International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, established in 1991, is a leading scholarly journal published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd that provides an international forum for research on skeletal remains from archaeological and historical populations. It publishes original research articles, methodological papers, and review studies that explore biological, cultural, and environmental aspects of past human and animal life through bone and tooth analysis. Key themes include palaeopathology, trauma, growth and development, ageing, dietary reconstruction, migration studies, and taphonomy. The journal encourages interdisciplinary research combining osteology with archaeology, history, genetics, and isotopic science. Its content supports both theoretical development and practical applications in the interpretation of skeletal assemblages. Issued on a bimonthly basis, the journal ensures timely dissemination of new findings relevant to bioarchaeologists, physical anthropologists, and archaeologists worldwide. Indexed in major academic databases such as Scopus and Web of Science, it provides high visibility for innovative research. Through rigorous peer review and international editorial leadership, the International Journal of Osteoarchaeology plays a key role in advancing knowledge of past populations and their interaction with environments and cultures.
