About the Journal

Welcome to Chronolog Student Journal!

Chronolog is a student journal concerned with the history, culture, archaeology, and language of ancient Southwest Asia and Northeast Africa. Chronolog is published once a year - usually in spring.

Chronolog has two main objectives:

  • to provide students and recent graduates the opportunity to publish an article in a scholarly (peer reviewed) journal
  • to publish high-quality research papers

Provide publishing opportunities to students and recent graduates We believe that students and recent graduates should have the possibility to experience what it means to publish an academic article in a peer reviewed journal. We usually give authors the opportunity to revise their manuscript on the basis of thorough reviewing by both our editorial team and through peer review.

High quality papers In order to ensure high-quality publications, all submitted manuscripts are assessed through a double blind review process. Criteria for the assessment:

  • relevance
  • originality
  • appropriateness of the selected literature
  • theory and methods
  • quality of the analyses
  • documentation of claims and conclusions
  • argumentative logic and coherence
  • readability


Open Access

Chronolog is made accesible via open access on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge. All authors are free to both link to and republish their own articles published in Chronolog on other platforms from the day the issue is published.

We are proud to present the second issue of Chronolog Journal!

As with the first issue of Chronolog, it contains a wealth of information
for students and newly graduates: three peer reviewed papers,
an essay about field archaeology, tips for grant writing, as well
as the editors’ conference recommendations, and spotlights - this
time not on students and graduates but our professors!
The three peer reviewed papers cover vastly different topics, geographical
regions and periods, it encompasses the different regions
and kinds of studies carried out at CCRS (ToRS), from the large picture
using cutting edge scientific techniques, to material studies, to
the textual historical research. All of them providing us with a deeper understanding
of the human past in Southwest Asia and Egypt.

We hope you enjoy reading our second issue.

Kind regards,
