These pages are intended to provide concise information on projects applying computing technologies to Classical/Ancient Historical research. Should you know of any relevant project, please feel free to add it to the list and create a page with the title, URL, and a brief description.
The Big Ancient Mediterranean (“BAM”) integrates GIS tools, network analysis, textual annotation, and
data mining capabilities to explore and visualize ancient texts in new ways. The site’s simultaneous
presentation of these tools is designed to allow a deeper “reading” of texts by providing students,
teachers, researchers, and the general public with an open-access portal wherein they can interact with
maps, visualizations, and linked data. BAM aims to further connect and develop the digital resources and
rich landscape of linked data developed in the field of ancient studies. The first module within BAM is
called Terra Biblica, which offers users a means to explore biblical and early Christian texts. In order to
encourage scholarly discussion and to incorporate new datasets within the BAM interface, we are
requesting funding to facilitate an academic workshop to be held in June of 2016, and the development of
a full prototype for BAM drawing on participants’ feedback.
