Submissions

Publish with the Journal of Northwest Anthropology! For 50 years the Journal of Northwest Anthropology (2002–2022) and its predecessor, Northwest Anthropological Research Notes (1967 – 2001), have served as the Pacific Northwest’s primary peer-reviewed professional anthropology journal. The journal has been dedicated to publishing all anthropological research—archaeological, physical, cultural, linguistics, social, and applied—relevant to the past and present cultures of the Northwest Coast and Plateau regions. 

JONA is currently seeking article-length submissions for upcoming issues! Submit an abstract at here. Our Style Guide can also be accessed at this link.

The twelve essays published provide insight into the types of research that are ongoing across the Northwest. The collection suggests a healthy balance of research touching on ethnography, linguistics, prehistory, ethnobotany, history, experimental, method, and theory. The collection includes cases from the earliest inhabitants (10,000+ years ago) at the Lind Coulee rock shelter, ethnohistoric groups in the Cascades, and the impact of amenity migration on farmers and ranchers living in Teton Valley, Idaho, today. Some authors comment on research that was conducted decades ago, others describe research being conducted today, and still others detail the research they hope to pursue, or have others pursue, in the future.
