This is an excellent magazine for the interested layperson. The articles are very informative but not too technical, and the photography is first rate. It covers prehistoric and historic archaeology in North America and Mesoamerica, so it highlights a part of the world that other archaeology magazines do not. Plus, a part of the subscription price supports The Archaeological Conservancy, a nonprofit group that buys American archaeological sites to protect them. If you want to keep track of what's happening in American archaeology but don't want to read the dry professional journals, then this is the magazine for you.

This is a very well done magazine. An "archaeology buff" friend of mine recommened it to me. It's about archaeology in the United States and does a great job of covering the entire country. Articles include historic and prehistoric archaeology. The subscription includes membership in The Archaeological Conservancy, which is a group that preserves important archaeological sites, so the money goes to a good cause. This group even offers archaeological tours and members are kept up to date on what is offered. I highly recommend this magazine.

American Archaeology is the only national magazine dedicated to covering the archaeology of the Americas. The publication offers readers a chance to learn about the exciting world of archaeology and presents information in an easily accessible way. In addition to highlighting the outstanding work of The Archaeological Conservancy, American Archaeology covers the latest in significant research and discovery, and is a favorite among professionals and amateurs in the field. A must have for anyone interested in this topic!

I found American Archaeology to be intriguing and easy to understand considering I don't have a background in archaeology. I found that the articles were very interesting and covered a wide range of topics, from current events to preservation projects. I think it is a great publication for those fascinated with the field of archaeology.

Over a month since placing this order and I have yet to receive an issue or an confirmation of my subscription.
