Archive of Ancient Greek and Latin inscriptions from Upper Macedonia, Aegean Thrace and Achai

 [First posted in AWOL 16 June 2012, updated 24 March 2014]

Ancient Greek and Latin inscriptions from Upper Macedonia, Aegean Thrace and Achaia

This collection of epigraphic texts represents part of the epigraphic archives of the Institute for Greek and Roman Antiquity (KERA), which were progressively constituted since 1980 with permission and in collaboration with the corresponding Department of Antiquities of the direction of Antiquities of the Greek Ministry of Culture, to promote the systematic study and scientific exploitation of epigraphic texts as primary sources for the history, institutions, language, religion and culture of specific Greek regions in Greek and Roman Antiquity.

The collection comprises three sets of published ancient inscriptions on stone (the lower limit being the 7th century AD):

1. from the Achaean city of Patras (Prof. A Rizakis)
2. from Upper Macedonia (prefectures of Grevena, Kozani, Kastoria and Florina, Prof. A. Rizakis and Dr. J. Touratsoglou)
3. from Aegean Thrace (prefectures of Xanthi, Rhodopi and Hebros: KERA researchers Drs. L. Loukopoulou, M.-G. Parissaki, S. Psoma and A. Zournatzi in collaboration with the archaeologists of the 19th Ephoria of Prehistoric and Classical Antiquities D. Triantaphyllos, K. Kallintzi, K. Koutsoumanis, Ch. Karadima, E. Skarlatidou, D. Terzopoulou and P. Tsatsopoulou)

Supplements to the collection of inscriptions from Upper Macedonia, its bibliographical update, the creation of all digital entries, as well as partial additions and corrections throughout the collection have been undertaken by the Institute’s collaborator K. Lembidaki, with the assistance of K. Ananiadis, A. Vourgali, M. Stavrou, D. Stathaki and V. Psilakakou, under the supervision of P. Paschidis.

Northwest Semitic Inscription Archive

Welcome to the Northwest Semitic Inscription Archive

Ammonite, Aramaic, Edomite, Hebrew, Moabite, Nabatean, Philistine,
Phoenician, Proto-Canaanite, Proto-Sinaitic, and Punic Inscriptions

Related BibliographyThe Northwest Semitic Inscription Archive (NSIA) has been designed to allow scholars and students access to inscriptions from the above list. The database is continuously updated to include recently published inscriptions. The text of each inscription may be viewed in Aramaic Block Script available at this site.

To use the database, we recommend first clicking on the ""Lryn" Font" button at the top of this page and follow the instructions to install the font onto your computer. For additional information on the font see Tips using the "Tipsheet" button at the top of this page. Once the "Lryn" font is installed, the text of each artifact will display in the Aramaic Block Script...

Inscription bearing artifacts and bibliographic references collected for the Northwest Semitic Inscription Archive are selected according to a rather broad set of parameters. The first goal is to include all Iron Age and Persian Period inscriptions in the Ammonite, Aramaic, Edomite, Hebrew, Moabite, Philistine, Phoenician, Proto-Canaanite, Proto-Sinaitic, and Punic dialects. Geographic provenance for these inscriptions includes the Levant, Egypt and Mesopotamia. Artifact type is limited to inscriptions on durable surfaces; stone, metal, and ceramic. Papyri are not included

Bibliographic references for each inscription are extensive, but not comprehensive. Bibliographic items which provide major discussion of the artifact and its text, comparative study of a group of inscriptions, major exegetical or historical interpretation of each text, or clear photographs/drawings of the artifact/inscription are included. The bibliographic materials are designed to provide significant points of entry into the study of each inscription. However, these bibliographic materials will not provide references to all the nuances of scholarly discussion about each inscription, nuances frequently found included in footnotes, or in tangential remarks within the body of a scholarly work.

Testimonia Epigraphica Norica (TENOR): Römerzeitliche Kleininschriften aus Österreich

Testimonia Epigraphica Norica (TENOR): Römerzeitliche Kleininschriften aus Österreich

Das von M. Hainzmann an der Uni Graz (Institut für Alte Geschichte und Altertumskunde) initiierte Projekt zur systematischen Erfassung und Bearbeitung römerzeitlicher Kleininschriften aus Österreich / Noricum wurde über mehrere FWF-Projekte finanziert, ehe es 2002 an die ÖAW übernommen wurde. Seither wird das Projekt von einem wiss. Mitarbeiter am ÖAW - Institut für Kulturgeschichte der Antike betreut und fortgeführt, nachdem es zwischenzeitlich an der ehemaligen Kleinasiatischen Kommission (Obmann: Prof. G. Dobesch) angesiedelt war.   

Wer sich ein umfassendes Bild von den Schrifzeugnissen der Römerzeit in Österreich machen will, kann die sogenannten Kleininschriften als zahlenmäßig größte Gruppe nicht ignorieren. Zu dieser heterogenen Quellenkategorie werden sowohl handschriftliche Ritzungen und Pinselaufschriften auf diversen Objekten - insbesondere des Hausrates (instrumentum domesticum) - gezählt als auch gestempelte Herstellermarken auf lokal produzierten (z.B. Ziegel, Töpfereiprodukte) oder importierten Gegenständen (z.B. Tafelgeschirr, Transportbehälter, Metallgerät, Schmuck)...
