3. General Formatting:
Contributions should be written in English, German, French or in Turkish, and be sent in hard copy (printed in A4 format with no additions in hand writing) and in two CD. Preferred word-processor is “Word 5.0 or above” in Macintosh or in MS-DOS/Windows. (The epigraphic text are not advised to be written in Macintosh, for it can cause lose in converting to MS-DOS/Windows. Documents in MS-DOS should be saved as “text” format. No hand-notes should be added to the printed texts.
All material, including footnotes, quotations and bibliography should be double-spaced without making any page setup. A single typeface (“Times New Roman”), excepting texts in Greek or other ancient languages, throughout for text, headings, footnotes etc. 11 font size for the text and 9 font size for the notes should be preferred. “Enter” button for beginning paragraphs should be used. All-capital letters, bold-face, italics or all-underlined letters for headings or subheadings should not be used.
Except the necessities, no formating should be done by using “tables”, “tab” or “space bar”, especially for catalogues and bibliopgraphy.
4. Length:
The length of the paper, including footnotes, submitted for publication should not exceed 30.000 characters (approximately 4000 words/10-15 pages). Illustrations, on the other hand, should be up to 12 plates. The length of the abstracts should not exceed 2000 characters. The editorial committee would approve for the papers longer than these limits.
5. Drawings and Photographs:
Photographs of artwork of high-quality glossy black and white prints (maximum 13 x 18 cm) and originals of drawings or their tracing paper photocopies (dimensions in maximum A4 paper) should be send. Coloured photographs are not admitted. The scanned forms of all drawings and photographs as Jpeg or Tiff in at least 600 dpi solutions should be added in to the CD with the text. All illustrations should be identified on a self-sticking label with your last name and the figure number, attached to the back of them. Submit separately a double-spaced list of captions for the illustrations, each identified by number. Include at the end of the caption the source of the illustration, along with any credit line specified by the copyright holder, rendered exactly as required.
If there is a specific plate design prefered by the author, this should be sent as a printed copy.
6. Footnotes and bibliography:
Indicate footnotes with a raised (superscript) number placed outside the word. Footnotes should be placed consecutively at the end of each page. A list of abbreviations for all of the references could be given at the end of the paper. Use the author-date format for references to modern scholarship (e.g. Briant 1987: 274-278) with no “p.” or “pp.” “Ibid.” may be used to save space, but avoid “op.cit” and “loc.cit”. The index on pdf file could be used for the abbreviations of periodicals. Supplementum Epigraphicum Graecum. Consolidated Index for Volumes XXXVI-XLV (1986-1995) [=http://www.hum.leiden.edu/history/seg-abbreviations.jsp] could be used for the abbreviations on epigraphic studies. References for the modern scholarship should be given as below. Drawings and photographs should be identified as in the written language (Abb., Fig., Res., Lev., Pl., Taf., Tav. etc.)

Glare” or “http://iam.classics.unc.edu/main/help/A.html”) in parentheses in the text, rather than in footnotes, and use Arabic, not Roman numerals for books, e.g. “Plinius HN 6.102”, not “Plinius Nat.His.
