Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts to AI & Antiquity (AIA) through the OJS platform. All submissions are first assessed by the editorial board to confirm that they align with the journal’s aims and scope and comply with the Editorial Guidelines. Manuscripts that pass this initial screening will then be sent out for double-blind peer review.

Before submitting, authors are responsible for:

  • Obtaining permission to reproduce any third-party material (e.g., images, figures, datasets).

  • Ensuring that all listed authors have approved the final version and consent to authorship.

  • Securing approval from an appropriate ethics committee where required, in line with national and international regulations.

Please note that submissions not meeting basic quality standards may be declined at the desk review stage. Authors should ensure that the study design and argument are sound, the writing is clear, the title is concise, and the abstract can stand independently.

For detailed requirements regarding formatting, referencing, ethics, accessibility, and the use of generative AI, please consult the Editorial Guidelines section of the journal website.

Submission Preparation Checklist

Before submitting your manuscript to AI & Antiquity, please ensure that:

  • The manuscript is original, unpublished, and not under review elsewhere.

  • The file is in Word format, using Cambria 12, 1.15 spacing, with correct paragraph and footnote formatting.

  • The text has been anonymized for double-blind review (no author names or self-references).

  • Metadata in OJS includes author names, affiliations, ORCID iD, and email addresses.

  • The title, abstract (200–300 words), and five keywords are provided in both the article’s original language and in English.

  • The references must follow the APA 7th edition citation style, with minor adaptations applied by the journal to ensure consistency. All entries must be complete and formatted consistently.

  • Tables, figures, and charts are properly labeled (Table 1, Figure 1, etc.), with captions and sources, and appear in the correct order after the bibliography.

  • Any AI-generated text or images are clearly acknowledged, including model, version, date, and (if applicable) prompt.

  • All potential conflicts of interest are disclosed.

  • If the manuscript is not in English, the English abstract has been proofread for clarity and accuracy.

  • Accessibility needs or neurodivergent communication preferences have been indicated, if relevant.

  • The manuscript uses inclusive, non-discriminatory language and, where appropriate, engages critically with issues of representation and visibility (e.g., women, marginalised groups, neurodivergence).
