Author guidelines for the Acts

The final deadline for paper submission (including posters) is September 30, 2016.

Manuscripts must be in digital format [preferably in MS-WORD].

Manuscripts should not exceed 10 pages, including references [footnotes] and bibliography.

Illustrations are limited to the absolutely necessary pictures and drawings [highest limit 10] that can be submitted as hard copies or digital [through e-mail]. Digital images resolution must be of 300dpi at least. ATTENTION: It is preferable to submit the original drawings [or high quality photocopies] as well as slides or black-and-white photographs that will be digitalized by the editors, rather than problematic digital images [of low resolution, small dimensions].

Numbering of drawings, photographs, tables, etc must be unified as "Figures". Illustration subtitles must be submitted in a separate page.

Please send also an abstract in a different language than the paper [up to half a page].

Editors of the Acts are Alexander Mazarakis Ainian and Anthi Batziou-Eustathiou.

Manuscripts must be submitted via e-mail to the Laboratory of Archaeology of IAKA Department, University of Thessaly, archaeolab@uth.gr . If sent by post, the address is Laboratory of Archaeology, IAKA Department, University of Thessaly, Argonafton and Philellinon, 382 21, Volos, Greece under the denotation "5th AETHSE Acts".

The Acts are to be published within 2018, before the 6th AETHSE [Beginning of March 2018]. If funds are insufficient, the publication may be digital.

Editing Guidelines
Text with letters of size 12 and line space of 1.5.
All titles must be written in CAPITAL letters, ancient texts in italics.
References must be footnotes [letters of size 10] using the "author-date" system and must include the author's surname, the year of edition and the number of the page (i.e. Stahlin 1924, 23). At the end of each paper there must be a detailed bibliography list, where references/footnotes are cited. Should there be more than one work of an author in the same year, a, b, c etc., the date must be followed [i.e. Arvanitopoulos 1911a, 1911b, 1911c...]. In case of collective studies reference must include all surnames [i.e. Agouridis - Zigouri - Rontiri 1991, 31].
The numbers of the footnotes should precede punctuation marks.

Instructions for bibliographic referencing

References in text
- Use commas between date and page number (e.g., Coldstream 1976, 345)
- Use dash and two or three digits to indicate range (e.g., Coldstream 1976, 24-28; Mazarakis Ainian 1997, 345-347)
- Use commas between page numbers not in sequence (e.g., Coulson 1995, 345, 400)
- Use semi colon to separate dates for same author (e.g., Coulson 1982; 1995)
