==Background==

Originally established as a bulletin of archaeology, art history, and museology, later on, in 1964, ''Argo'' became a specialist journal dealing with art history and the museology of the ancient and the early medieval periods. In 1971 the [[Association of Slovene Museums]] became a co-publisher and the journal subsequently broadened its focus to the entire field of museology and museum activities. Later, in 1979, the [[Slovene Museum Society]] also joined as a co-publisher.
