Trowel is an academic journal published by postgraduate students at the School of Archaeology, University College Dublin, Ireland.

It was first published in 1988. The student-run journal was redesigned and relaunched for Volume X 2005 after a five-year hiatus in publication. This involved a change from an A4 black and white format to an A5 full colour volume. New sections were also added.[citation needed]

It is one of four national academic journals in Ireland focusing on the publication of articles relating to archaeology. The others are the Journal of Irish Archaeology (published by the Institute of Archaeologists of Ireland), the Journal of the Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland, and Proceedings of the Royal Irish Academy: Archaeology, Culture, History, Literature.[citation needed]

Volume XI of Trowel, published in 2007, included contributions from post-graduate students from NUI Galway and University College Cork.[relevant?]
