The Canadian Journal of Archaeology is a biannual publication of the Canadian Archaeological Association. Its principal mandate is to document the processes and results of Canadian archaeology, and to serve as a venue for descriptive studies, cultural historical syntheses, theoretical explorations, and sociocultural analyses relating to the practice and politics of archaeology.
![CJA/JCA 47(2). Cover image: The cover image is from Jeffries Wyman's 1868 article, “An Account of Some of the Kjoekkenmoeddings, or Shell-Heaps in Maine and Massachusetts” (The American Naturalist 1[11]:584). Wyman was an anatomist and the first Director of the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard University. The term Kjoekkenmoedding comes from the designation for shell-heaps used by Danish prehistorians who identified similar features and provided the inspiration for Wyman's research.](https://canadianarchaeology.com/caa/sites/default/files/styles/pub_cover_image_sm88x127/public/publications/covers/journal-canadien-darcheologie/2025/47-2-cover-web-rev.jpg?itok=4JUHok3U "Canadian Journal of Archaeology/Jounal canadien d'archéologie 47(2).
