Editorial line
The Revue Archéologique de l’Ouest (RAO) is published annually by the Association pour la Diffusion des Recherches archéologiques dans l’Ouest de la France.
It publishes original research on the archaeology of the prehistoric, protohistoric and historic periods. Topics should relate to north-western France (Brittany, Normandy, Pays de la Loire) or be closely connected with these regions.
This research can take the form of regional or interregional review articles, monographs on sites and subjects of significance which merit publication, or brief notes offering a new perspective on specific subjects. There is also a section devoted to reviews of archaeological publications and a report providing an overview of academic research.
The RAO also publishes supplements which can take the form of review articles, conference proceedings or site monographs.
