Peer Review Policy

Sudan & Nubia is a peer reviewed journal. All submissions are initially evaluated by the Editor and Assistant Editor. If the article is found suitable to be considered for inclusion in the journal, it will be subjected to independent, expert double-blind peer review. Peer reviewers are drawn from independent international institutions and/or the SARS Editorial Team or Committee and are chosen for their expertise in the subject. Potential conflicts of interest should be stated, and alternative reviewers may be chosen. Reviewers make comments on a standardised review form and may also make comments in the article text if necessary. They are asked to recommend an article for publication, for publication with revisions once comments are considered, or for publication elsewhere. If major revisions are required, author(s) may be asked to resubmit their article for additional peer review. Evaluation is based upon academic merit, suitability of subject matter for the journal, originality of the work, methods and quality of research, clarity of text, terminology, and presentation. Research with human or animal subjects should adhere to ethical conduct. All submissions should be original work and all authors and contributors credited appropriately. Peer review remarks are returned to the author(s) by email and are anonymous. The review process normally takes approximately four to six weeks.
Copyright of all articles published in Sudan & Nubia and the illustrations contained within them, unless otherwise stated, rests with the authors. Journal articles are available open access and subject to fair use. Authors are responsible for obtaining copyright permission from third-party copyright holders and paying any associated fees. Where photographs or figures are not acknowledged in the captions, they were taken by the authors of the article in which they appear. The opinions expressed in the articles published in Sudan & Nubia are those of the author(s) concerned and do not reflect those of the Sudan Archaeological Research Society, its officers and committee members.
