Welcome To Current Publishing

Current Publishing is an independently owned magazine publishing company based in London that focuses on the heritage sector. It was founded in 1967, and our specialist titles are well-respected in their fields. Our team of dedicated writers live and breathe their subjects, which they turn into illuminating features easily understandable by the general public. As such, we are fortunate to have a highly loyal readership.

This has allowed the company to flourish during testing times, increase our portfolio, and our readership as well. We now deliver hundreds of thousands of copies per year to dedicated, intelligent readers from the UK, the US, and the rest of the world.

We publish five magazines, Current Archaeology, Britain's favourite archaeology magazine, focusing on archaeology in the UK; Current World Archaeology, a sister magazine which contains digs and discoveries from around the world; Military History Matters, the history magazine on conflict on land, sea, and in the air; Minerva, the magazine of archaeology and the ancient world; and we have recently welcomed Ancient Egypt into the fold, the world's leading Egyptology magazine.
