Frequently Asked Questions

Does my proposed work fit the criteria?

Answer - the criteria have been deliberately made broad, and if you think a work fits the definition set out in the first sentence of the call for nominations, then please go ahead with it.

Why is there an overlap between the periods of nomination?

Answer - simply to allow time for new publications to come to the attention of proposers. The period is two calendar years plus the first four months of the year in which nomination calls are made (usually every second year). Otherwise something published close to the close of nominations might not be noticed until it was too late.

Who are the judges for the Award?

Dr Colin Martin (University of St Andrews), Dr Paula Martin (Editor, IJNA), Dave Parham (University of Bournemouth), Dr Mark Redknap (National Museum of Wales), Dr Alison Sheridan (National Museums of Scotland) and Dr Lucy Blue (NAS)

What is the first prize?

Answer - a very heavy trophy. There is no money involved, just the publicity, and a certificate.
