The American Anthropological Association uses Chicago as its citation style. Always check your assignment instructions to see which style you should use in your paper.

The USU Libraries subscribes to the Chicago Manual of Style online, so you can access it anywhere with your A# and password.

SAA Style

The Society for American Archaeology (SAA) uses its own style.

In this style, a book appears in the reference list as follows:

Author’s last name, first name and Second author’s first name last name
          Year Title. Publisher, Publication Place.

And an academic journal article from a database is formatted like this:

Author’s last name, first name and Second author’s first name last name
          Year Title of Article. Title of Journal Volume(Issue):page numbers. Database name, URL, accessed month day, year.

Here are some resources to help you cite in this style:
