Work in Progress Seminar, Summer 2008

Friday 25th July at 16:30, in room NG16, Senate House, Malet Street, London

Charlotte Tupman (KCL)
'Markup of the epigraphy and archaeology of Roman Libya'

1,500 Greek and Latin inscriptions survive from Roman Cyrenaica (modern
Libya). A project to produce a digital publication of these texts is
currently in progress at King’s College London, in association with
colleagues in Libya, Italy and the U.S.A. (http://ircyr.kcl.ac.uk/).
This paper discusses the issues surrounding the markup of these texts in
EpiDoc XML and the possibilities of associating archaeological data with
the epigraphic material.

ALL WELCOME

The seminar will be followed by wine and refreshments.
