The ISPCS (The Israel Society for the Promotion of Classical Studies) was founded in 1971 in order to promote the study of classics in Israel and to foster relations between Israeli classicists and colleagues from abroad.

The ISPCS organizes an annual conference, in which scholars from Israel and abroad present their new studies.
The Society’s journal, Scripta Classica Israelica, appears once a year. It contains scholarly articles, book reviews and reports on new publications in Hebrew.
