This brief note reports why we tried, what we have done, how, and with what result. There was, and is, no direct commercial benefit.
Antiquity is a non-profit trust, so usefulness to the archaeological community comes before profit.
Material that will be useful there, and makes a manageable size - without substituting for the journal. By then, we had good but not full knowledge of what will be in the succeeding issue, so a partial list of what is anticipated in the March 1998 issue went up at the same time. And since the present Review special section is largely about the Web, we are putting it up on Antiquity's home-page as well. Ben Horton, freelance, designed our web pages at modest cost in HTML, the layout language the Net uses. Writing in HTML is getting easier, partly thanks to our growing experience and partly because the programs to write HTML are improving fast.
