Hello
Yes as Tom says tDAR are kind of like the equivalent of the ADS here
in UK. In fact the ADS director sits on Digital Antiquity's Board of
Directors.
Internet Archaeology and ADS have collaborated with them in recent
years not least on the 2nd LEAP project
(http://intarch.ac.uk/leap/index.html) where related data
under-pinning two IA articles was hosted by tDAR and integrated into
the article.
So for example if you have any datasets that fall more within TDAR's
remit than ADS, then it's not a problem for a related publication in
Internet Archaeology to integrate with it.
