The AS Portal offers free access to online resources on Swiss archaeology. In this way, Swiss Archaeology is creating new ways of using data on a valuable public cultural asset – Switzerland’s archaeological heritage.
Currently, CHRONIQUES online are available on the portal. They contain the annual finds reports of the cantonal offices for archaeology, reporting archaeological investigations in Switzerland over the last 35 years.

Our magazine
Each of the four annual issues of arCHaeo Suisse is dedicated to a current focus topic. In addition, there are various sections in the magazine: Tips for excursions in «Erleben», news from the cantons in «arCHaeo aktuell», a very special find in «Fundstück» or current events in the «Schaufenster».
Our authors write in German, French or Italian and address their contributions to a broad and diverse audience interested in archaeology. Summaries and image captions are translated into the other two national Swiss languages.
The journal arCHaeo Suisse is published in four printed issues per year and can either be subscribed to or obtained in single issues. For members of Swiss Archaeology, all issues are included in the membership fee.
