Welcome to Northern Earth

Founded in 1979, Northern Earth is the world’s longest-running journal combining interests in archaeology, folklore, antiquarianism, phenomenology and psychogeography – exploring the many ways in which people interact with place. At this site you can:

  • Learn more about Northern Earth and its history
  • Read a wide range of articles (these can also be explored via the themed links to the right, or below on mobile devices)
  • Subscribe to the quarterly print journal from only £12 a year
  • Buy related books published in association with NE
  • Read our guidelines for contributors

Northern Earth is primarily a small-press non-profit magazine, with sidelines like this website, a Facebook presence, and an e-group for subscribers. We are maintained by a small team of volunteers, so please do not expect the resources of a commercial enterprise, and be patient if we occasionally take holidays!
