《物質文化雜志》探討了文物與社會關系的關系。它借鑒了一系列學科，包括人類學、考古學、設計研究、歷史、人文地理學和博物館學。“這本雜志是一個很好的地方，為研討會討論找到肉，也應要求瀏覽學生尋找新的觀點，文物，以及學習和查看材料文化的方式，在這個領域……這里有很多好的想法、好的方法和好的想法，適合各種各樣的人。”《古代》（凱瑟琳·S·福勒，內華達大學）

Journal of Material Culture explores the relationship between artefacts and social relations. It draws on a range of disciplines including anthropology, archaeology, design studies, history, human geography and museology."this journal is a good place to find the meat for seminar discussions, and should also be required browsing for students seeking new perspectives on artefacts as well as ways to study and view material culture in the field... There are good thoughts, good methodologies and good ideas to be found here for a wide range of people." Antiquity (Catherine S Fowler, University of Nevada)
