Journal overview

Plains Anthropologist publishes manuscripts with a focus on anthropological theory, method, and practice as it pertains to the Great Plains in all categories (articles, reports, short contributions, and comments) that synthesize, integrate, and interpret anthropological knowledge of the Great Plains peoples and cultures. Plains Anthropologist is one of the benefits of membership in the Plains Anthropological Society. Manuscripts concerned with areas other than the Great Plains will be considered if they are of theoretical importance or if they bear upon problems of humans in Plains settings.
