About the Journal

STRATA magazine is a specialized publication of the National Institute of Cultural Heritage of Ecuador, dedicated to disseminate research on archeology, paleontology and underwater cultural heritage.

Strata is the plural of the Latin stratum (stratum), which in its first meaning refers to a set of elements that have been integrated with others, previous or subsequent, for the formation of a historical product. In this sense, this journal aims to integrate contributions from different disciplines to collaborate with the dialogue and scientific archaeological, paleontological and national underwater heritage production.

The journal is aimed at researchers, academics and students in this field, as well as all those interested in the study of related topics. It is published biannually in Spanish, continuously and in electronic format through the Open Journal Systems (OJS) platform.
