Community-driven, free, open and transparent peer-review for #preprints in #Archaeology http://archaeo.peercommunityin.org Also easy to find on Mastodon and Bluesky
Time to describe again: we are a community offering #free and transparent #OpenAccess Peer-review of #preprints in #Archaeology, with a final recommendation if the process gives birth to a sound manuscript. In the end authors', reviewer's and recommender's work is published.

Exciting news for archaeometallurgists! Historical Metallurgy is now a Category 1 PCI-Friendly journal! When recommended by @PCI_Archaeology, your manuscript will be published as is if it fits the journal’s scope! #Archaeology @MetallurgySoc

Just learned today that all Nature's published research papers will now have their peer-reviews accessible! #openpeerreview is becoming mainstream! doi.org/10.1038/d41586… But if you want to make it for free you can still come to us instead of this big commercial publisher... 😜
