The Institute of Field Archaeologists was founded in 1982 to advance the practice of archaeology by promoting professional standards and ethics for the conservation, management and study of the archaeological resource. It is the sole body providing professional accreditation for UK archaeologists.

Cathedral Communications, well known for publishing the IFA Yearbook and The Building Conservation Directory, now also handles the advertising for the Institute’s highly regarded news and information journal The Archaeologist.

The Archaeologist includes diverse and interesting coverage of developments in the UK and international archaeology field as well as news of the latest Institute activities, events and other useful information for front-line archaeology professionals.
