www.akademicka.pl Studies in Ancient Art and Civilization was created in 1991 by Professor Joachim Śliwa as an occasional series and since vol. 10 (2007) has become a regular annual journal edited by the Jagiellonian University Institute of Archaeology. Księgarnia Akademicka S. A. has been the publisher since 2011.Eighteen volumes have been published to date, among them two mono-graphs, two conference proceedings and three festschrifts for distin-guished researchers from our Institute.
SAAC publishes papers in the fields of the archaeology, art and civiliza-tion of ancient Egypt, the Near East, Greece and its colonies, Cyprus and Rome, as well as other, non-Mediterranean ancient civilizations; also in the history of archaeology, antiquities collecting and the reception of ancient culture in modern Europe. Special attention is given to topics concerning predynastic and early-dynastic Egypt, the Greek and Roman periods in the Black Sea region, and the archaeology of Cyprus, thanks to excavations conducted by researchers from our Institute in these areas. Material from these excavations is published in SAAC.

Editorial NotE
Since volume 14 of the Studies in Ancient Art And Civilization, published in 2010, the design of our periodical has slightly changed, and we also started to use the so-called Harvard referencing (or parenthetical) system, all due to the fact that SAAC was listed in the reference index of reviewed journals of the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education (List B).
Since 2011 (vol. 15) the publisher has been KsięgarniaAkademicka Ltd. in Krakow. Starting with volume 16 (2012) an external review procedure has been introduced, compliant with the double-blind review process (anonymity of both the reviewed author and the reviewer). The referees include both members of the Editorial Board and others. The list of referees is published on the journal’s website and in the hard copy. The primary version of the journal is the electronic format. As far as the names of the towns in Poland are concerned, these are given in their original form (e.g. Poznań, Gołuchów etc.), with the exception of the well established English ones such as Warsaw and Krakow (but in the title pages the original name Kraków is used).
With the 2011 issue we also introduced the following abbreviations, apart from those used in the American Journal of Archaeology and Lexikon
der Ägyptologie:
PAM – Polish Archaeology in the Mediterranean, Warsaw
RechACrac SN – Recherches Archéologiques. Serie Nouvelle, Krakow SAAC – Studies in Ancient Art and Civilization, Krakow

inmemoriam harold m. hays (1965-2013)
I will never forget any of Harold Hays’ lectures. there may not have been that many of them, but each one was different from any other in its form.
We met for the first time on rhodes at the 10th International Congress
of Egyptologists, where he was speaking about old Kingdom religious
texts. Although I did not completely agree with his reasoning, he impressed me with the clarity of his argumentation.
Later, at the Old Kingdom Art and Archaeology Conference in Cambridge, the audience and I were treated to a most stylish show. the manner in which he presented his paper was something of which we Poles could only dream.
the last time we met was in Cracow at the Sixth Central European
Conference of Egyptologists. Egypt 2012: Perspectives of Research in 2012.
Here, Harold presented us with an even more spirited lecture reflecting his wide knowledge and open-minded perception of both the world around him and also that of the ancient Egyptians.
I remember so well when Harold said to me: ‘I am anxiously waiting for the day when you come to me and say: “I agree with you Harold.”’ But it never happened. Nevertheless, this was never a cause for animosity between us and we both greatly enjoyed our discussions on the Pyramid
Texts.
We had many plans for future collaboration and for meetings and conferences to debate our thought-provoking scholarly ideas. At every conference we would spend hours discussing the Egyptological topics that intrigued us, as well as our countries, our universities, our families and our preferences in film and literature.
the news that Harold had passed away on 30 November 2013 left all CECE participants in a state of profound sadness.
Farewell Harold…
