1. The conventional dates of radiocarbon will be express in years BP (Before Present), the subtraction of 1950 to the conventional date is vividly dissuaded;

2. The absolute dates will have to be published followed by the laboratory references;

3. The calibrated dates of radiocarbon will have to be followed by the symbols cal BC, cal AD or cal BP, according to the case;

4. The calibration curve used will always have to be referred.

2. In the quotation of dates resultant from the application of other methods, the same elements required for the reference of dates of radiocarbon must be indicated (laboratory, number of the dating, obtained dates and margins of error), followed by the acronyms that usually identify the respective method (TL/U/Th, etc.).

3. Reference to chronological scale (example: III millennium, IV century, third quarter of II century, etc.), not expressly related to any specific date of radiocarbon, as such identified, or those that get synthesis of dates through different methods, will follow the Portuguese traditional system a.C. (before of Christ) and d.C. (after Christ).

4. The authors will have to use preferentially, as cartographic base, copies of existing maps, avoiding the drawing of individual maps.

5. In the elaboration of the drawings, it is necessary to have in consideration the thickness of the traces and the size of numbers or letters in order to have good legibility in the reductions.

6. The figures will have to be supplied in comparable scales for archaeological documents of the same nature. Thus, as an example, the decorated ceramics drawings will be published to scale 1:2, being the plain ceramics reduced to 1:3.

Exceptions to this rule are the complete forms of vases of great dimensions (dolia, amphoras), who's reduction will be to scale 1:10 .
