Archaeus was founded in 1997, being the first Romanian journal of this sort after the collapse of Communism in 1989. The aim of the founders of the Journal was to encourage the study of the history of religions, in the footsteps of Mircea Eliade (1907-1986) and I.P. Culianu (1951-1991). Special prices are offered for bulk purchases of issues more than two years old. The editors have a wide range of licensing options available to libraries and library consortia.
