Epigraphy.info: A Collaborative Environment for Digital Epigraphy

Epigraphy.info: A Collaborative Environment for Digital Epigraphy
Epigraphy.info is an international open community pursuing a collaborative environment for digital epigraphy, which facilitates scholarly communication and interaction. We apply FAIR principles to epigraphic information in order to efficiently create, use and share it among researchers, students and enthusiasts around the globe. The Epigraphy.info community works to gather and enhance the many existing epigraphic efforts, and serves as a landing point for digital tools, practices and methodologies for managing collections of inscriptions.
Key concerns include:
  • Identification, creation, and dissemination of agreed-upon guidelines, standards, and best practices;
  • Preservation, reuse, and update of existing and emerging datasets providing the most up-to-date versions of inscriptions;
  • Providing a toolset for searching, analyzing and editing inscriptions and their metadata by both human and machine;
  • Services for citation, revision and exchange.
Epigraphy.info will not replace existing digital resources; it intends to be a hub for a fruitful exchange of epigraphic data and digital solutions that will benefit all epigraphers.

DĀMOS: Database of Mycenaean at Oslo

 [First posted on AWOL 15 February 2013, updated 16 October 2019]

DĀMOS: Database of Mycenaean at Oslo
https://www2.hf.uio.no/damos/public/images/linearB_b.jpg 
DAMOS (Database of Mycenaean at Oslo) is an annotated electronic corpus of all the published Mycenaean texts, the earliest (ca. XV-XII B.C.) written evidence of the Greek language, comprised of inscriptions in the Linear B syllabic script.
Mycenaean texts are generally administrative documents, dating from ca 1450 to 1150 B.C., written mostly on clay tablets in a syllabic script that we call Linear B. They have been found within the rests of the Mycenaean palaces both on Crete and mainland Greece. They amount to something less then 6000 documents, although many of them are brief or fragmentary texts.

Linear B is a syllabic script not related to the later Greek alphabets. It belongs to a family of writing systems used in the Aegean area in the II and I millennium B.C., of which only Linear B and the Cypriot syllabary of the I millennium have been satisfactorily deciphered. It is important to remark that although Linear B as a writing system seems to have functioned well as a tool for recording administrative information, it is not in fact a very efficient instrument for rendering the phonetic system of Greek, since it presents many inaccuracies and deficiencies in this regard. This fact, together with the nature of the texts, sometimes makes our interpretation of the texts and of their language quite uncertain. This, in turn, shows well how important the opportunity is, which an annotated electronic corpus offers, of systematically crossing all the information available at the different levels of analysis and within the whole of the extant Mycenaean texts.

The language of the documents, being the oldest attestation of an Indo-European language after Hittite and the only attestation of a Greek dialect in the II millennium B.C., presents several archaic and interesting linguistic features and poses some questions crucial for the history of the Greek language (and for the field of comparative Indo-European linguistics in general), which, especially because of the mentioned limitations of the content of the documents and the shortcomings of the writing system, are still in need of an appropriate, if not definitive, answer.
15.10.2019
Links to texts, images and data in LiBER (Mycenaea, Midea, Tiryns) have been added.
26.09.2019
References to Mycenaean documents in M. Del Freo, M. Perna (eds.) Manuale di Epigrafia Micenea have been added to the Basic Tablet Bibliography of the single tablets.
15.09.2019
Links to the Pylos images in CaLiBRA have been added.
13.09.2019

Series, Subseries and Set changes,
Scribal hand changes,
New Joins.
Caveat: a few minor textual differences might have escaped. A revision of the texts is ongoing.
10.10.2018
The find places of the Pylos tablets have been updated according to Firth(2017).

Lebendiger Gips: 150 Jahre Museum für Abgüsse Klassischer Bildwerke München

Lebendiger Gips: 150 Jahre Museum für Abgüsse Klassischer Bildwerke München
Andrea Schmölder-Veit, Nele Schröder-Griebel (Hrsg.)

  Lebendiger Gips

Das Museum für Abgüsse Klassischer Bildwerke München feiert sein 150-jähriges Bestehen. Mit rund 2.000 Exponaten ist das Museum eine der größten Abguss-Sammlungen Deutschlands.
Zu diesem Jubiläum Anlass präsentiert das Museum eine große Sonderausstellung mit umfangreichen Begleitband. Naturgemäß geht der Blick dabei zum einen zurück auf die wechselvolle Sammlungs-Geschichte, die hierfür erstmals vollständig aufgearbeitet und dargestellt wird.
Zum anderen wird mit dem Begleitband die Frage beantwortet: Warum sammelt man Abgüsse? Und hierauf gibt es nicht nur eine Antwort: Abgüsse dienen auf vielfältige Weise der archäologischen Forschung und Lehre und sind wertwolle Instrumente in der Didaktik.
