General recommendations:

Text:

1. Times New Roman font, size 12, single‐spaced, A4 page size (.doc, .docx or .rtf file).
2. Every paper should have an abstract (no longer than 250 words) and a list of keywords (no more than seven) in Romanian and English (as well as in the language of the paper, if this language is not Romanian or English).
3. In the case of larger studies (over 15 pages), to facilitate the presentation, the authors can divide their text on chapters and subchapters, highlighted by numbering and/or subtitles.

 Footnotes:

1. Footnotes should be concise and numbered consecutively.
2. References will include the author’s name, year, page (e.g., Suceveanu 2009, p. 175). In case of two or more papers of the same author published in the same year, the distinction will be made by adding a letter (e.g., Gill 1988a; Gill 1988b). For papers/volumes with four or more authors, after the name of the first author should be added et alii.
3. We suggest the use of the abbreviations as listed in the previous issues of Studii şi Cercetări de Istorie Veche şi Arheologie (see also SCIVA 46, 3-4, 1995).

References:

The list will contain two columns. The first one will mention the name of the author(s) and the year of publication. The second column will contain the complete citation of the submission, mentioning in order: the name and surname (abbreviated by the initial) of the author(s), the title of the paper, the place of publication, the year. The list will be organized alphabetically, by the name of the author/first author.
