<i>Mundo Antigo em Resenha (MAR)</i>

This article discusses the trajectory of studies about the ancient Near East and Egyptology within the Spanish and Portuguese-speaking world. It argues that linguistic barriers also contributed to their remaining peripheral. Scholars in these regions have produced significant work in their fields, yet their contributions often remain isolated and underrecognized. The journal Mundo Antigo em Resenha (MAR) addresses this gap by publishing reviews of recent works in Spanish and Portuguese on topics related to antiquity. MAR aims to promote visibility and inclusivity and help researchers to develop connections. By fostering dialogue and collaboration, MAR seeks to enrich the scholarship about ancient Egypt and the Near East from Luso-Hispanic and Latin American communities, making it more accessible and impactful.
