Anthropology Style Manuals

At PLU, we ask students to follow either the American Anthropological Association style manual or the Society for American Archaeology style guide when writing term papers. Here you can find the relevant documents.

American Anthropological Association

Here is the link for the American Anthropological Association Style Guide. The web address for the site is www.americananthro.org/StayInformed/Content.aspx?ItemNumber=2044

Society for American Anthropology

Here is the link for the Society for American Archaeology Publications .

Once on the site, scroll down to find the heading titled “The SAA Press”. In the list below you will see “Style Guide”, which has a link to their pdf document.
