Prehistory Studies
The north pacific prehistory scientific journal defends intellectual pluralism and is open to any scholar, whatever his theoretical or methodological current, working on subjects relating to the archaeology of the northern region of the Pacific Ocean. npp publishes original articles on prehistory that contribute to greater knowledge and diffusion of information pertaining to the geographical areas of the Russian Far East, oriental Siberia, Japan, Korea, Alaska and British Columbia. However, npp also accepts works leading to insights on peripheral territories, such as central Siberia, Mongolia, China, the United States or Canada, in order to examine shared questions between Greater Beringia and its surroundings
