Other Publications
Occasionally, the Alabama Archaeological Society lends editorial support for publications on Alabama archaeological research topics.
Recently, the Alabama Archaeological Society provided editorial assistance and contributions for David Johnson’s new book, Handbook of Alabama’s Prehistoric Indians and Artifacts. The first edition was published in 2017 and the second in 2019.
This volume is a field guide for artifacts from all around the state including projectile points, stone tools, and pottery with tips on collecting, recording, and learning. It includes maps and information about various public archaeological sites. An easily understandable one-stop reference for Alabama archaeology, and best of all, all proceeds from sales of the book go to the Alabama Archaeological Society!
Our colleagues with the Mississippi Archaeological Association and The Archaeological Conservancy, as well as AAS, assisted with David Johnson’s newest publication in March 2024, adding to his Handbook series, Handbook of Mississippi’s Prehistoric Indians and Artifacts.
While not available on mass-media websites, David Johnson’s Handbook series website is available to order both books straight from the author himself.
If you would like the Alabama Archaeological Society to consider lending editorial support to your upcoming research volume, please contact the Journal Editor or the Assistant Journal Editor.
