All articles submitted to Dissertationes Archaeologicae are initially assessed by the Editor-in-chief, who decides whether or not the article is suitable for peer review. Submissions considered suitable for peer review are assigned to one or more independent experts, who assess the article for originality, clarity and validity. Article types that are not peer reviewed (e. g. doctoral theses or field reports) will undergo full editorial review by one or more of the editorial team.
DissArch operates a double-blind peer review, meaning that both author and reviewers remain anonymous unless otherwise requested. Reviewers are asked to provide formative feedback, even if an article is not deemed suitable for publication in the journal. Based on the reviewer reports, the Editor-in-chief – supported by the Editorial Board – will make a decision for rejection, minor or major revisions, or acceptance.
