| Introduction & Team |
ECHO Publications is a semi-autonomous division within ECHO with the main aim to produce the ECHO DISCOVERER Newsletter of the Egyptian Cultural Heritage Organisation that provides the exclusive link between ECHO and its members. Besides the ECHO DISCOVERER, ECHO Publications produces publications, such as ECHO EXPLORER Journal of the Egyptian Cultural Heritage Organisation and ECHO Monograph series, to provide ECHO with an outlet to circulate its views and promote its scientific issues towards the academic [Egyptological / archaeological] community.
ECHO Publications consists of a director, James Mower who is responsible for the financial and administrational organisation, and of an editorial team that is responsible for the editorial structure of all publications. At present, the editorial team consists of two Co-Editors; Joris van Wetering and Joanne M. Rowland.

ECHO DISCOVERER Newsletter of the ECHO,
The ECHO EXPLORER JOURNAL OF THE EGYPTIAN CULTURAL HERITAGE ORGANISATION is an archaeological journal that carries articles relevant to Egyptian archaeology with its main aim not to describe WHAT has be found but HOW it was found. With a focus on new technologies for field work and theoretical & practical/methodological aspects of Egyptian archaeology as well as on site- and museum-conservation. Each journal brings together several articles on the same subject, both from a theoretical and a practical perspective.
The ECHO MONOGRAPH SERIES OF THE EGYPTIAN CULTURAL HERITAGE ORGANISATION consists of non-periodically published, extensive manuscripts on a certain subject in Egyptian Archaeology.
A project that is being considered by the ECHO Co-Editors is a concise, non-academic publication on a specific topic: ECHO OCCASIONAL PAPERS in Egyptian Archaeology.

As the official publications of the Egyptian Cultural Heritage Organisation (ECHO), the ECHO DISCOVERER (newsletter), the ECHO EXPLORER (journal), and ECHO MONOGRAPH series will not carry any advertisements for antiquities dealers, and will not knowingly serve for the announcement of initial scholarly presentation of any object in a private or public collection acquired after 30th December 1970, unless that object can be proved to have been part of an already existing collection or can be proved beyond reasonable doubt that it has been legally exported from the country of origin.
ECHO and ECHO publications condemn the looting and destruction of archaeological sites and are supporters of the: 1970 UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property; the UNIDROIT Convention on Stolen or Illegally Exported Cultural Objects; and the UNESCO Protocol to the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict.
