ABOUT KIVA

Kiva was founded in the 1930s by the Arizona Archaeological and Historical Society as an outlet for publication on the bourgeoning archaeological work on the American southwest. This region, more than any other in the country, is the most popular region for archaeological work in the nation, both professional and avocational. Throughout its life, Kiva has published the best voices in southwest archaeology, and has included in its domain history, ethnology & anthropology, and linguistics.

Kiva is edited by Stephen H. Lekson, the Curator of Anthropology, University Museum University of Colorado. Recent theme issues have highlighted key topics in the field and the journal is universally regarded as the key publication for southwest archaeologists. Kiva welcomes unsolicited, original papers relating to the prehistoric and historic archaeology, ethnology, history, anthropology, and linguistics, and ethnohistory of the southwestern United States. The journal operates with a 5-member board, including Michael Adler, Shereen Lerner, Barbara Mills, Steven Sims, and Marisa Elisa Villalpando.
