Archaeologia Cambrensis is an archaeological and historical scholarly journal that is published annually by the Cambrian Archaeological Association. It contains excavation reports, book reviews, and historical essays, as well as society notes and accounts of field visits. The journal has included "much valuable material on the manuscripts, genealogy, heraldry, toponymy, folklore and literature of Wales".
The publication history of the journal is complicated, with inconsistent volume numbering and multiple series. An index of the journal was compiled by Lily Chitty and published in 1964, in order to make the earlier volumes more accessible. The journal as a whole is in the process of being digitized by the Welsh Journals Online project at the National Library of Wales.
The Journal covers all aspects of the Archaeology of Wales and the Welsh Marches from the earliest Prehistoric discoveries to the Industrial Archaeology and Landscape history of the 19th and 20th centuries. On occasions, and particularly in the earlier years articles have been published on the archaeology of other Celtic Lands (Brittany, Cornwall, the Isle of Man, Scotland and Ireland). In the 19th century articles in the Journal tended to concentrate on Prehistoric Monuments (particularly Cromlechs, Chambered tombs and Hill-forts; Roman sites; Inscribed stones and other discoveries of the Dark Ages and the architecture of Medieval Wales, especially of Churches, Castles and Monasteries.
