Antiquity is a bimonthly peer-reviewed academic journal covering archaeology worldwide from all periods.[1] The editor-in-chief is Robin Skeates (University of Durham). Since 2015, the journal has been published by Cambridge University Press.[2]

The journal was established in 1927 by the British archaeologist O. G. S. Crawford and originally called Antiquity: A Quarterly Review of Archaeology.[3] The journal is owned by the Antiquity Trust, a registered charity.[4]

In October 2024, it was announced that the journal would transition to a full open access model for all research articles by 2026, with a funding initiative ensuring accessibility for all authors.[5]

Antiquity has been a long-time supporter of the Theoretical Archaeology Group conferences.[6][7]
