as well as to research undertaken by scholars of the former Soviet Union abroad and to materials in
collections in the former Soviet Union. Particular emphasis is given to the Black Sea area, Eurasian
steppes, the Caucasus, Asia Minor, Siberia, Iran and Central Asia. Ancient Civilizations from Scythia to
Siberia has already established itself as an invaluable resource for the subject both in the private

contains, besides a selection of high-quality original papers, an abundance of figures for clarification of

Instructions for Authors

Abbreviations
A separate list of abbreviations should be supplied, organized in alphabetical order of abbreviation. The
titles of journals should not be abbreviated.

Example:
Sinopean amphorae of the Roman period belong to two production traditions, but they are all made of
the same fabric.1 The first tradition continued the development of the shape of the local Hellenistic
amphorae. These are amphorae of late variant Sin Ic with conical “winding” toes (fig. 1, 1). The latest
known vessels of this variant are dated to the mid- 1st century AD.2 Possibly, these were the precursors of
several varieties of Sinopean amphorae of the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD, which are described below.

Publication

Proofs
Upon acceptance, a PDF of the article proofs will be sent to the author by e-mail to check carefully for
factual and typographic errors. Authors are responsible for checking these proofs and are strongly urged
to make use of the Comment & Markup toolbar to note their corrections directly on the proofs. At this
stage in the production process only minor corrections are allowed. Alterations to the original
manuscript at this stage will result in considerable delay in publication and, therefore, are not accepted
unless charged to the author. Proofs should be returned promptly.

E-Offprints
A PDF file of the article will be supplied free of charge by the publisher to authors for personal use. Brill
is a RoMEO yellow publisher. The Author retains the right to self-archive the submitted (pre-peer-review)
version of the article at any time. The submitted version of an article is the author's version that has not
been peer-reviewed, nor had any value added to it by Brill (such as formatting or copy editing). The
Author retains the right to self-archive the accepted (peer-reviewed) version without any embargo
period. The accepted version means the version which has been accepted for publication and contains
all revisions made after peer reviewing and copy editing, but has not yet been typeset in the publisher’s
lay-out. The publisher’s lay-out must not be used in any repository or on any website
(brill.com/resources/authors/publishing-books-brill/self-archiving-rights).
