Numismatic Literature
ISSN: 0029-6031
Numismatic Literature was the Society's annotated bibliography of published work in all fields of numismatics. At its core NumLit was a text archive that supports multiple delivery formats, one that was designed for longevity in the face of rapid technological innovation. For users, NumLit existed as subject and author indexes that were regularly updated as new titles are entered. The titles were also listed in the reverse order of when they were added. It had been published since 1947 and the final published volume is No. 149 (2007). Please note that NumLit is no longer published. All previous volumes of Numismatic Literature may be read and downloaded via HathiTrust at no charge.

Here’s everything you need to know about each of them! Click here to download the app and experience this ancient wonder for yourself.
Modern street level
You are on a 15m column in front of the Temple’s Western Wall. This is the current ground level when you visit the site today. You are surrounded by domestic housing. To your left is Wilson’s Arch and a bridge that gives access to the temple complex. Behind the observer are views of the surrounding landscape including distant glimpses of the fortification wall and residential areas. The remains of the fortification wall are scant in modern Jerusalem, so a reconstructed version is used here based on chronologically parallel examples...

NB: When doing any scientific work, be on the alert for the fact that freely available digitised volumes on the Internet (vs. commercial products) may contain errors, notably when it concerns the plates or appendices. Plates are clearly the weak side of Internet digitalisation: often their resolution is too low, they are scanned only partially, or they are left out altogether. As an example: in the below mentioned scans of MEEF 5 (Edouard Naville, The Shrine of Saft el Henneh and the Land of Goshen (1885), London, 1887), plates 2, 3, 5, and 6 have only been scanned on the show side of each folded page, and plates 1 and 4 are missing altogether.

Open Access Journal: Oracula
[First posted in AWOL 5 November 2009. Updated 28 December 2016]
Oracula
ISSN: 1807-8222
Oracula
ISSN: 1807-8222
A Revista Oracula foi criada no ano de 2005 como meio de divulgação dos projetos e produções do Grupo Oracula de Pesquisa do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciências da Religião da Universidade Metodista de São Paulo. Articulando professores, doutorandos e mestrandos da área da literatura bíblica, bem como da história da antiguidade para o estudo da apocalíptica judaica e cristã primitiva, com métodos da história da religião e da exegese bíblica, o propósito foi, durante muito tempo, publicar artigos sobre apocalíptica, profecia e fenômenos visionários dos pesquisadores do grupo e de seus interlocutores no Brasil e no exterior.
A partir do décimo quinto número, no entanto, a revista estendeu o seu horizonte de interesses para os estudos de cristianismo primitivo, incluindo aí Novo Testamento, textos apócrifos, religiosidades mediterrâneas, judaísmo em aspectos literários, históricos, metodológicos etc. Ao não mais se restringir a certo gênero literário ou tipo de religiosidade específica, a Revista Oracula colabora para o fortalecimento de publicações e pesquisas nessa área incipiente – ainda que promissora – na pós-graduação brasileira.

Open Access Exhibition Catalogue: Syria: A Living History
Syria: A Living History
October 15, 2016, to February 26, 2017Few countries have captured the world’s attention like Syria has today. Stories of conflict and displacement dominate the media and define people’s awareness of the place. Syria: A Living History brings together artifacts and artworks that tell a different story—one of cultural diversity, historical continuity, resourcefulness, and resilience.

The Latin Library
The Latin Library
These texts have been drawn from different sources. Many were originally scanned and formatted from texts in the Public Domain. Others have been downloaded from various sites on the Internet (many of which have long since disappeared). Most of the recent texts have been submitted by contributors around the world. I have tried to indicate on the Credit Page the edition and date of the original text and who (if known) was responsible for the initial HTML conversion. For the core of the classical texts, special acknowledgement is due to the submissions of Konrad Schroeder, Nicholas Koenig, Andrew Gollan and others to the Project Libellus. These have been downloaded with the permission of the contributors and presented here with additional HTML formatting.
Occasionally texts are submitted by contributors or discovered on the Internet without indication of the edition from which they derive. If I am unable to identify the edition (which is often the case), I have attempted, if feasible, to conform the text to an out–of–copyright edition.
The texts are not intended for research purposes nor as substitutes for critical editions. Despite constant effort to remove “scanner artifacts” and other typographical errors, many such errors remain. The texts are presented merely for ease of on–line reading or for downloading for personal or educational use.
No morphological or vocabulary aid is presented with the texts. Many sites exist for various texts and, most comprehensively, the outstanding Perseus site, where the texts are presented section by section with morphological links.
There are no translations at this site. Please don’t ask. David Camden’s excellent Forum Romanum has a comprehensive list of translations available on line.
I have taken every reasonable precaution to ensure that the Latin texts presented here are in the Public Domain. If any copyright is claimed, please advise us immediately so that we may remove the offending text from the Library.
We need additional texts to expand the Library. We also need your help in making these texts as accurate as possible. If you have other texts to submit, or corrections to the present ones, please contact: latinlibrary@mac.com

Ammianus Marcellinus Online Project
Ammianus Marcellinus Online Project
“This is the history of events from the reign of the emperor Nerva to the death of Valens, which I, a former soldier and a Greek (miles quondam et Graecus), have composed to the best of my ability. It claims to be the truth, which I have never ventured to pervert either by silence or a lie.” (Amm. Marc. 31.16.9)
“an accurate and faithful guide, who has composed the history of his own times without indulging the prejudices and passions which usually affect the mind of a contemporary” (Edward Gibbon)
“Ammianus is… a great historian, a man of penetrating intelligence and of remarkable fairness…” (A.H.M. Jones)
“the greatest literary genius that the world produced between Tacitus and Dante” (Stein)
This site introduces Ammianus and his work by means of a biography, short essays on important persons in and aspects of his work, a bibliography of important and recent publications.
The site is under permanent construction. Suggestions for improvement, additions to the bibliography and short essays are very welcome. Please contact Jan Willem Drijvers (j.w.drijvers@rug.nl).
