The EXARC Journal (since 2004) is the leading Journal for those involved in Archaeological Open-Air Museums, Experimental Archaeology, Interpretation and Ancient Technology. It features the latest developments in fieldwork, academic research, museum studies, living history interpretation and ancient technology. The articles presented in those four sections are reviewed.
In unreviewed Mixed Matters we present book reviews, reports from conferences and events, interviews with personalities from the world of experimental archaeology and portraits of archaeological open-air museums. This section is regularly updated to bring you topical news.
