The Biblical Archaeologist (1938-1997)

The journal was established in 1938 by archaeologist George Ernest Wright as The Biblical Archaeologist, out of "the need for a readable, non-technical, yet thoroughly reliable account of archaeological discoveries as they are related to the Bible..."[1].

In 1998 it was renamed Near Eastern Archaeology, to reflect the publication's broader geographic, chronological, and intellectual scope.
