Figures and Tables

Figures

1. The word “Figure” is used to refer to all photographs, maps, charts, and graphs that accompany an article. Every illustration is to be given a figure number. Every figure must be referred to in the text, and initial references to them must be in numerical sequence (“1, 2, 3,” not “1, 3, 2”).

2. If a map is necessary, Figure 1 should be a map locating the site or study area within its wider geographical context. The JMR has an international readership that needs to be kept in mind when designing Figure 1. Field reports should include at least one photograph that depicts the terrain and environment of the site or study area.

3. A simple graphic scale, when necessary, should appear in the image area of the figures; do not give scales such as “3×” or “1:50.000” in the captions. When an object is placed on the picture and there is no scale, the dimensions of the figure can be written in the figure title. Such as “The pot on the left is 21 cm tall”.

4. The list of captions should be typed in upper and lower case letters, double-spaced, all lines justified left, and the word “Figure” should be the first word in each caption. For example;

Figure 1. Map of the Weicker site and environs. Inset shows the location of the site in NW Mexico. Map by Patricia Parker.

Each component in such a figure should be referred to in the text but, as with figures, these may be combined, e.g., “(Fig. 6c-f).”

Tables and Special Fonts

Tables and special fonts should be sent as a printed PDF page separately, because of their original form could be easily distorted.

Book Reviews

Reviews in the JMR should be max. 2500 words and are expected to be critical and analytical in order to place the book under review in context.
