Das pharaonische Ägypten stellt eine der prägenden Kulturen der Alten Welt dar. Bis heute übt die Kenntnis der Alten Ägypter von Einzelphänomenen und ihren Bedeutungszusammenhängen eine große Faszination auf die Menschen der modernen Zeit aus. Einen Zugang zum altägyptischen Wissen können wir auch über 1500 Jahre nach dem Untergang dieser Hochkultur mittels der überlieferten Texte erhalten, denn sie stellen nichts Geringeres als eine schon früh verschriftliche Form ihres Wissens dar. Da die antiken Wissenstexte nicht nur für Ägyptologen von Interesse sind, sondern auch von Wissenschaftlern anderer Fachgebiete analysiert werden, ist es das Ziel dieses Projekts, die verschiedenen Bereiche altägyptischen Wissens samt ihren jeweiligen Textzeugen öffentlich zugänglich zu machen. Die gesammelten Metadaten zu den einzelnen Wissenstexten werden dabei zusammen mit einer umfassenden Bibliographie bereitgestellt. Darüber hinaus bietet diese Internetplattform eine dem aktuellen Forschungsstand entsprechende Übersetzung der einzelnen Wissenstexte, die auch von Interessenten ohne ägyptologische Vorkenntnisse konsultiert werden kann.

The Minerva Center for the Relations between Israel and Aram in Biblical Times
Overview of the Minerva Center for the Relations between Israel and Aram in Biblical Times (RIAB)
Co-directed by Prof. Aren M. Maeir (BIU) and Prof. Angelika Berlejung (University of Leipzig)
Introduction:
The cultures of Israel and of Aram are two of the most important cultures of the ancient eastern Mediterranean (and the ancient world in general), not only in the fact that they played crucial roles during early periods (and are extensively portrayed in the biblical text), but as they are among the few cultures of antiquity (not only in the Levant but in the entire world) whose cultural patrimony exists until today. As it is clear that these two cultures were intimately connected throughout major periods of their development, the study of the character and extent of the interconnections and mutual influences between these two cultures is of deep interest.
To this end, the Minerva Foundation, of the German Max Planck Society, has awarded a Minerva Center, entitled “The Relations between Israel and Aram in Biblical Times (RIAB)” to Prof. Aren M. Maeir of Bar-Ilan University and Prof. Angelika Berlejung from the University of Leipzig (who will serve as co-directors of the center). The center will include scholars from Bar-Ilan University (Prof. Esti Eshel, Dr. Yigal Levin and Dr. Leeor Gottlieb), the University of Leipzig (Prof. Andreas Schuele, Prof. Michael Streck, Prof. Marco Frenschkowski and Dr. Takaoshi Oshima), Würzburg University (Prof. Guenther Vittmann), the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (Dr. Nili Wazana and Dr. Nava Panitz-Cohen) and Tel Aviv University (Dr. Omer Sergi).

Dodona Online (DOL): Towards a New Edition of the lamellae of the Oracle at Dodona
Dodona Online (DOL): Towards a New Edition of the lamellae of the Oracle at Dodona
Dodona Online (DOL) is a project whose main aim is to edit online all the oracular questions from Dodona. It will first include the 4216 new lamellae from the Evangelidis’ excavations, whose edition, which was long prepared by late researchers I. Vokotopoulou, S. Dakaris and A.-Ph. Christidis, was eventually published in 2013, thanks to the devoted efforts of S. Tselikas. Montreal is the epicentre of the project, but the team itself is scattered all over the world, mainly in Europe. It gathers the most eminent scholars of the Dodonaean field, Greek epigraphy, and Greek religion. Dodona online will eventually be hosted by the Perseus Digital Library, which will allow a worldwide, quick, free, and open access to the material.
The Glaser Collection :3D-Digitizing of Rare Ancient South Arabian Squeezes, 19th Century Glaser Collection
[First posted in AWOL 5 August 2017, updated 16 January 2021]
The collection of the Austrian scholar and explorer Eduard Glaser (1855-1908) was acquired in 1910 by the Academy of Sciences in Vienna. The epigrapher and specialist in the South-Arabian language brought back a huge amount of medieval Arabic manuscripts, and stone inscriptions, nowadays spread over Europe, as well as squeezes of the non-transportable ones, photographs, glass-negatives, diaries, and notes of historical importance. The Academy owns the latter precious documents of the 1880s and 1890s and within this project they are going to be digitally preserved and partly scientifically analyzed. Moreover, the international scholarly community – most of the researchers in this field are abroad – could participate and benefit from the digital items, either to download in high quality or to contribute their results of research. They will mark one further step towards the integration of the History and Culture of South Arabia within the field of ancient Near Eastern studies and will help to give a fuller historical background from the early first millennium BCE till the rise of Islam. This applies, above all, to the glass negatives and photographs with historical significance and the five unexplored diaries with their ethnological, historical and linguistic documentation. Another part will be the development of a linguistic text analyzing tool KALAM reloaded for the inscriptions written in closely related Semitic languages like Sabaic, Qatabānic, Minaic/Madhābian, and Ḥaḍramitic language that could help to better resolve illegible passages/letters, while giving the full grammatical information with translation. All these items, catalogued and searchable in a web-application, are going to be visualized in a geographical map-search.The Structured from Motion method (SfM) has been selected for the scans of both sides of the 2155 squeezes left from the first project “Pilot-3D-Digitizing of Rare Ancient South Arabian Squeezes, 19th Century Glaser Collection”. This technique has been chosen after evaluating other possibilities (pulse based laser scanner, structured light scanner, arm based 3D scanners and Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI)). Time, accuracy and project resources are among the important elements that make this technique the best for the two-year period of the project. SfM is well known for the accuracy and good quality of the textures that can be achieved.scannerThe Scanning Process (by Moises Hernandez-Cordero)
The workflow will use a photo tent for capturing of the data together with the markers for an accurate geometry. These elements will enhance accuracy, colour management and light parameters during the processing of the images. The Canon EOS5D Mark III with the Canon 50 mm lens is the camera used to capture the images. Agisoft Photoscan Pro 1.3.4 is the software selected to process the data and to create the 3D models with texture (obj format). Then, these will be exported on the 3D open source Meshlab 2016 to create an additional file (analyse file.png) with a filter (radiance scaling). At the end of the process, the files will have three important qualities of the squeezes collection, geometry, texture and an image file highlighting the most important features of the squeeze itself.
