The magazine is written for a general audience and is published quarterly by the American Schools of Oriental Research. The current co-editors are Ann E. Killebrew, Jeff Blakeley, and Andrew Vaughn. Almost all articles undergo peer review prior to publication. The magazine is electronically archived by JSTOR with a three year moving wall.

The Biblical Archaeologist (1938 - 1997)

"Near Eastern Archaeology Magazine" was formerly known as "The Biblical Archaeologist". The magazine's first editor was G. Ernest Wright, who founded the publication in 1938 out of "the need for a readable, non-technical, yet thoroughly reliable account of archaeological discoveries as they are related to the Bible..." [1938 "Announcement," "The Biblical Archaeologist", p. 4] The first sixty volumes were published under the title of "The Biblical Archaeologist" until 1998, when the title was changed to reflect the publication's broader geographic, chronological, and intellectual scope.
