Journals in CWTS Journal Indicators Core or the Directory of Open Access Journals that published at least 20 articles in the last five years, mostly in English. "In this field" is the share of a journal's articles that OpenAlex classifies in Anthropology. Citation rate is OpenAlex's two-year mean citedness, an open measure similar to the journal impact factor. Fees are taken from OpenAlex and DOAJ and can be out of date: always check the journal's own website before you submit.
