Contribution Rules



  1. Our journal welcomes contributions of articles or essays on various languages, literary sources (documents, manuscripts, inscriptions) written in the languages and the history of peoples of Inner Asia or Central Eurasia, which include Manchuria or Northeastern Asia in East and the coast of Black Sea in West.

  2. Contributed manuscripts are only to be published for the first time, except for results of oral communication or lecture.

  3. We never impose any space limitations upon contributors. Generally each article is 20 pages in print (about 6000 words for European languages), but we welcome notes in a few pages as well as articles or editions of source which need a much longer space. Contributors are requested to attach a resume of the article, and to specify the volume of the article (total number of words) and the number of plates.

  4. The deadline is on the last day of February. The result of review will be later noticed.

  5. Contributors are recommended to send their manuscript‚“ by E-mail or in a FD, MO, or CD-ROM. At the same time, they also need to send printed paper on which styles (bold, Italic, etc.) or strange characters are marked. In case some characters are not shown properly, leave the space blank and make notes on printed paper. If plates are to be attached, contributors need to prepare clear pictures for printing.

  6. If contributor is a Macintosh user, they are expected to use designated font style and they need to announce us which software is used for the manuscript. We are ready to provide Macintosh-font style for transcripting Iranian, Turkic, Mongolian, Tibetan and other Inner Asian languages at your request.

  7. If contributor uses Windows or other word-processers, they are expected to make their manuscripts in Microsoft Word-form. MS-DOS textfile format is also permitted.

  8. Contributors need to declare their office and position at the end of manuscript. When the article is not written in European languages, please add Roman-transliteration of contributor's name and translate title of the article into any European Language.

  9. Once contributed, reedition of manuscript is never permitted, except correction for mistaken spellings or printing.

  10. We do not provide offprints, though each contributor should receive 10 copies of his/her volume.


All above-mentioned is just a discipline. For further information, please mail to the editors.()
