Use when building exhibits for an American Anthropologist (AA) manuscript — photographs, maps, site plans, artifact images, kinship diagrams, transcripts, evidence tables, and multimodal media — so they are self-contained, accessible (alt text), ethically cleared (consent, permissions), and count toward the word budget. Designs exhibits; it does not run analysis or clear permissions for you.

Prompt
I need to review a site map and artifact plate I plan to include in an archaeology manuscript. Please analyze these visual exhibits for publication readiness. In your feedback, include sections for the main exhibit's analytical role, whether the figures are self-contained with necessary labeling and location information, consent and rights considerations, accessibility features like alt text or grayscale visibility, word count budget implications, and the recommended next step.

What's inside
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
At AA, exhibits do more than display numbers — a photograph, a map, a site plan, a kinship chart, or a
film clip can carry the argument, and the Multimodal Anthropologies section treats media as
scholarship in its own right. Exhibits also cost words (the Research-Article count includes figures,
tables, references, and notes), and they carry ethical and rights obligations that other fields'
charts do not.
When to trigger
Designing the key photograph, map, site plan, artifact image, kinship/network diagram, or table
Preparing a transcript or evidence table linking claims to sources
Building a Multimodal Anthropologies piece where image/sound/film is the argument
A reviewer found an exhibit unclear, unlabeled, or ethically/rights-problematic
Principles
Self-contained. A reader understands each exhibit from its caption, labels, and note alone —
state place, date, what is shown, sample/N (for quantitative exhibits), and the source.
The exhibit should argue. A photograph or map that merely decorates wastes scarce words; choose
exhibits that advance the interpretation (a contrast, a spatial pattern, a relational structure).
Consent & dignity. People depicted have consented to that use; faces/identifiers are handled per
the consent given (blur or anonymize where required). Do not publish images that expose or endanger
interlocutors (see amanthro-transparency-and-data).
Permissions & rights. Secure permissions for archival images, museum objects, and others' media;
credit lines and licenses are correct. Heritage/community rights over images of cultural property and
ancestral remains are respected — some images should not be reproduced at all.
Accessible. Provide alt text for figures; colorblind-safe and grayscale-legible where color
carries meaning; legible transcripts with transcription conventions stated.
Reproducible (quant exhibits). Numbers in tables/plots match the underlying analysis exactly.
Discipline-specific exhibits
Archaeology: site maps, stratigraphic sections, artifact plates, distribution maps, chronologies.
Biological: measurement plots with uncertainty, morphological figures, sampling maps.
