Description
Biblioteca Digitale delle Iscrizioni del Latium Vetus
Digital Library of the Inscriptions of Latium Vetus
The aim of this project is to build a digital repository of all Greek and Latin inscriptions (both pagan and christian) of the ancient region called Latium vetus, which corresponds to the modern towns of Albano, Agosta, Anticoli Corrado, Ariccia, Castel Gandolfo, Castel Madama, Cerreto, Ciciliano, Colonna, Ciampino, Fonte Nuova, Frascati, Gallicano, Genzano, Gerano, Grottaferrata, Guidonia, Labico, Lavinio, Lanuvio, Licenza, Marino, Mentana, Montecompatri, Monte Porzio Catone, Monterotondo, Nemi, Olevano, Palestrina, Pisoniano, Rocca di Papa, Rocca Priora, Sambuci, Subiaco, Tivoli, Trevi, Valmontone, Vicovaro, Zagarolo, besides Anagni, Lariano, and Velletri.
The inscriptions are about 5,000 and they are collected in a huge paper archive realized in more than forty years. The goal of the digitization of this archive, which is in progress, is to offer to the scholarly community an invaluable tool for every research in the fields of history, archaeology, and prosopography, through a systematic survey of the epigraphical documents of a region of the ancient world so important as was the area around the Colli Albani and the Campagna Romana.
The digitization of the archive is realized according to the form developed and approved by the Association Internationale d’Épigraphie Grecque et Latine (AIEGL). The team working on the project is going to prepare XML transcriptions of the texts that conform to the EpiDoc customization of the TEI P5 guidelines, which will be included in the digital repository.
Scientific partners of the project are the Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften, the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, the Deutsches Archäologisches Institut in Rome, and the University of Roma La Sapienza.
The project was officialy presented on May 26, 2009 at the University of Roma Tor Vergata.
