Egyptological is a new concept in archaeological publishing, which is
available free of charge to all readers. Part of the Egyptological
Online (E.O.) group of websites Egyptological was founded by Andrea
Byrnes and Kate Phizackerley in 2011. Our idea was to provide the
first free online-only Egyptology magazine which would provide our
readers with:
A free-of-charge resource
A diverse selection of high quality material to reflect varied levels
of academic and popular interest, all subject to editorial review
Research papers and popular articles
Exhibition, book, DVD and website reviews
Conference reports
Events and course calendars
A regularly updated photograph gallery
A platform for both new and existing writers to publish their material
in a friendly and helpful environment
Assistance for new writers if required
The opportunity to join a community of like-minded people to advance
the spread of good quality information about ancient Egypt
Egyptological covers all areas and periods of ancient Egyptian
prehistory up to and including the Coptic period. If you have an
interest in Ancient Egypt we hope that you will find articles,
exhibition, book and DVD reviews, and much more value-added content to
keep you entertained and informed.
Egyptological provides an environment for writers and researchers of
all levels of experience. It is divided into three main sections to
enable you to find the type of content that you are looking for:
Journal features hand-picked research papers produced to academic
standards and subjected to a rigorous editorial review process which
follows guidelines for academic publications. Papers in Journal will
usually refelct the specialized research interests of the authors.
Magazine publishes articles, book, television and DVD reviews and
exhibtion and conference reports. Articles tend to be several pages
long and are aimed at a wide audience. All articles are subject to
editorial review.
Colloquy is the place for short pieces, quick reviews and informal
articles on a vast variety of topics. There are also a frequently
changing photo album contributed by readers, events and courses
listings and our Discussion forum for asking questions, making
suggestions and putting forward ideas. This section will be updated
on an ad hoc basis. Expect to find a real mix of content here!
Each issue will include at least three major articles in the Journal
and Magazine sections with many more features and reviews to browse
and enjoy, which will be added to the website on a more regular and
less formal basis.
Our editorial and technical staff are all volunteers, and our writers
all contribute articles free of charge. This enables us to operate
both the Editions and the Magazine section without advertising or
other commercial input. By accepting advertising in the Colloquy
section we are able to pay hosting and other costs whilst ensuring
that the magazine remains free of charge to all visitors.
We very much hope that you enjoy Egyptological. Don’t forget to get
in touch with us if you have any questions or ideas.
