Lockwood Press

Lockwood Press is an independent English-language scholarly publisher whose catalogue centers on the archaeology, history, philology, and languages of the ancient world — particularly ancient Egypt, the ancient Near East, and the classical Mediterranean. Its list spans monographs, edited volumes, Festschriften, excavation reports, teaching grammars, and academic journals, and it sells both print editions and ebooks (including PDF and epub formats). The house is best known for specialist Egyptological and Near Eastern titles such as 'The History of Phoenicia' by Josette Elayi, 'A Teaching Grammar of Middle Egyptian', 'The Amarna Letters: The Syro-Levantine Correspondence', 'Ramesses II, Egypt's Ultimate Pharaoh', 'The Edwin Smith Papyrus', and multi-volume excavation reports like 'The Temple of Ramesses II in Abydos'. It also publishes reference and handbook works such as 'The LCP Handbook to the Late Roman Amphora' and 'The History of Phoenicia', and it maintains an active journals program. Its journal portfolio includes 'Journal of the American Research Center in Egypt', 'Journal of the American Society for Premodern Asia', and 'Palamedes: A Journal of Ancient History', the latter edited by Lukasz Niesiokowski-Spano and positioned as a forum where ancient historians, classical philologists, archaeologists, jurists, and epigraphists meet their Orientalist and Egyptological counterparts. Lockwood Press markets its titles worldwide to scholars, university libraries, and students, with individual chapters sometimes sold as separate PDFs. Its editorial identity is defined by rigorous, peer-reviewed scholarship in fields that bridge classical and Near Eastern studies, and it regularly announces new releases and forthcoming titles through its website.
