About BACE

The Australian Centre for Egyptology, based at Macquarie University in Sydney, publishes an annual Bulletin (BACE) with articles from national and international scholars in the field of Egyptology. BACE is designed as a forum for scholarly articles and topics dealing with all aspects of ancient Egyptian culture and society. The readership of the Bulletin is drawn from both the academic world and the interested general public. Members of the Rundle Foundation for Egyptian Archaeology receive a copy of the Bulletin at the end of the year for their membership contribution.
