The Index of Texas Archaeology is an open-access resource that seeks to eliminate the current dearth of access to gray literature associated with archaeological undertakings in Texas and the surrounding region by digitally aggregating and distributing content to a global audience without the added requirement that users visit or register with the site to locate or download content of interest.

It is the mission of the Index of Texas Archaeology to digitally curate, aggregate, and distribute redacted digital proxies of scarce, limited-production, and born-digital archaeological works produced throughout the State of Texas and adjacent regions. The Index of Texas Archaeology adheres to best practices as they relate to the curation of digital reports and supplementary data, and distributes these resources in an open-access format where they are easily found using basic searches of this site or through your favorite search engine.

Licensing information can be found on the cover page of each report. All reports are organized by year (Volume No.) and can be accessed using the drop-down menu in the right column. To begin searching for archaeological reports from your area, enter a term in the search bar, or click on the Advanced Search tab in the right column to get started.
