The Archeological Papers of the American Anthropological Association (AP3A) are original books on a wide range of subjects generally considered to fall within the purview of anthropological archeology. Each book is focused around a specific topic and recent subjects have included housework, gender, and craft specialization. The books are intended to foster the results of archaeological research and interpretations to anthropologists, to other scholars, and to the general public. Books in the AP3A series are available for course adoption.
