Anatolian Archaeological Studies was launched in 1992 to disseminate the results of the archaeological excavation research at Kaman-Kalehöyük and the general archaeological survey in Central Anatolia. The journal is published once a year and the latest volume is XVII. Volumes I through VIII were published in Japanese. Since volume IX (2000), the journal has been published mainly in English, aiming to provide the results to a wide audience and to open discussions with non-Japanese researchers. As new research projects are conducted by Japanese Institute of Anatolian Archaeology, the journal will also publish these new projects, not only the work at Kaman-Kalehöyük.
