Arctic Anthropology pays particular attention to circumpolar problems, to the origins and Eurasian relationships of New World peoples and cultures and to the presentation, in translation, of Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Scandinavian contributions to our field of interest. It is also intended to provide an outlet for materials not readily publishable in existing media owing to nature or length, and to place useful data on record.

Arctic Anthropology is published twice yearly. The subscription price per volume (two issues) is $25.00; special rates (individuals only): $15.00. Sub- scriptions, accompanied by remittance payable to The University of Wisconsin Press, should be addressed to the Journals Department, the University of Wis- consin Press, Box 1379, Madison, Wisconsin 53701. Requests for back copies for Volumes 1-10 should be sent to Kraus Reprint House, Route 11, Millwood, New York. Volumes I, II and III, No. 1, are out of print.

INFORMATION FOR CONTRIBUTORS

Editorial Policy: Each paper submitted for publication will be read by two or more referees before notice is given of its acceptance. To be considered, a paper must be substantive, must be related to northern (not necessarily arctic in the technical sense) anthropology, and must not be preliminary. Copyedited manuscripts will be sent to the author, except in unusual circumstances, pro- vided the author has submitted the article in duplicate. Any changes of sub- stance are in all cases brought to the author's attention for approval or re- jection. Due to the nature of the journal's format galley proofs cannot be sent to the author; final checking for typographical errors must be done by the edi- torial staff.

MANUSCRIPTS SHOULD BE TYPEWRITTEN DOUBLESPACED THROUGHOUT, INCLUDING RE- FERENCES, TABLES, AND FOOTNOTES. TWO COPIES SHOULD BE SUBMITTED. FOOTNOTES SHOULD BE TYPED AT THE BOTTOM OF THE RELEVANT PAGES (NOT ON A SEPARATE SHEET) AND SHOULD BE KEPT TO AN ABSOLUTE MINIMUM.

References to the literature should be indicated throughout the text, WITH PAGE NUMBERS INCLUDED, e.g., "(Smith 1959:2^-28)" or "Smith (1959:2^-28) has ar- gued that. ..." ALL REFERENCES CITED IN THE TEXT AND ONLY THOSE REFERENCES CITED IN THE TEXT WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE BIBLIOGRAPHY. AUTHORS ARE URGED TO FOLLOW TO THE SMALLEST DETAIL THE ORDER, CAPITALIZATION, AND ABBREVIATIONS USED IN BIBLIOGRAPHIES IN RECENT ISSUES OF ARCTIC ANTHROPOLOGY. In citing references, use complete name of author - NOT INITIALS - whenever possible. Bibliographies not in the format of Arctic Anthropology will be returned to the author for revision.
