We aim to reply within a few working days. Messages that need us to check a source or dig into an archive can take longer.
What to get in touch about
Corrections
These are the messages we most want to receive. If something we’ve published is wrong, outdated, or misleading, please tell us.
It helps enormously if you can include the article title or link, the specific passage in question, and a source we can check — a paper, an excavation report, a museum record, anything published. Corrections backed by a source are acted on quickly.
How we handle corrections is set out in our Editorial & Fact-Checking Policy.
Questions about ancient Egypt
If something in an article didn’t make sense, or you’re curious about a topic we haven’t covered, send it over. Reader questions often turn into articles.
We can’t provide research assistance for academic work, identify or value artefacts, or translate hieroglyphic inscriptions from photographs.
Permissions and republishing
Short quotations with a link back to the original article are welcome and don’t need permission. For anything more substantial, get in touch and tell us what you’d like to use and where. See our Terms of Service for the full position.
Privacy and data requests
To access, correct, or delete personal data we hold, email us with your request. Our Privacy Policy explains what we collect and your rights under GDPR and CCPA.
What we don’t accept
To save everyone time:
- Guest post and sponsored content offers
- Paid link placement or link exchange requests
- SEO, marketing, or web design services
- Press releases unrelated to Egyptology
We don’t publish sponsored content disguised as editorial and we don’t sell links. Messages of this kind won’t receive a reply.
A note for specialists
If you work in Egyptology or a related field and something we’ve written misrepresents your area, we’d genuinely like to hear from you. Writing accessibly about specialist research means simplifying, and simplification can go wrong. We’d rather be corrected than left uncorrected.
