JEA Submissions Notice 2026
The Journal of Egyptian Archaeology is committed to producing volumes that are both timely and impactful. In the wake of an unprecedentedly large quantity of uploads, we have decided to proactively freeze new submissions until January 2027 in order to devote our attention to clearing the backlog.
If you are an author who is currently in the review or revision processes, please continue to use the Sage system as usual to submit revisions. However, it is important to note that your article is unlikely to appear in either OnlineFirst or a printed volume until 2028. If you would now like to withdraw your submission for publication elsewhere, email us at [email protected]. Authors with fully accepted submissions will be contacted by the end of September 2026 with an update on which volume/year your article is likely to appear, to allow you a similarly informed decision.
Anyone choosing to submit an article into the Sage system after 15 August 2026 will receive an automated confirmation email, but the articles will not be processed until January 2027. They will then be moved into the review process in the order that they were received. Please note that any new submissions are unlikely to appear in either OnlineFirst or a printed volume until at least 2029. If you wish to withdraw your article in this timeframe, please use the [email protected] address; emails requesting a status update on new submissions will not receive a response.
The JEA Editorial Team thanks you all for your ongoing support. Please check back in January 2027 for future updates on submitting to the JEA. Your understanding is appreciated.
