but not the illustrations themselves. If the article is accepted,
illustrations may be submitted either electronically as TIFF

Notation Style: The Journal follows The Chicago
Manual of Style, Fifteenth Edition. For transliteration of Persian, Arabic and
Turkish words authors may follow the transliteration table of
the International Journal of Middle East Studies, but omit the
diacritical marks. Other transliteration schemes may also be
used, so long as this is done consistently. If transliterations
are not strictly consistent the paper would be returned to the
author. References should be in the notes only, not in a separate
bibliography of list of works cited. Notes will be printed as
footnotes, and should be used judiciously. Authors must strictly
comply with the journal notation style. Please note, publications
data include place and date only, not the name of publisher.
At the first mention of a work, a full citation should be given,
thereafter a short form:
