Southern Anthropologist (ISSN: 1554-4133) is the peer-reviewed journal of the Southern Anthropological Society (SAS), a four-field organization of anthropologists founded in 1966.

The journal highlights the scholarship and practice of anthropologists working on dynamics within the South, as well as those who are based in the South and conduct research elsewhere.
