This Wikibase instance aims to provide a collaborative space for structuring and analysing data related to Greek metrical inscriptions. The aim is to make the data accessible, searchable, and reusable for the study of Greek epigraphic poetry, in its various literary forms, and diverse geographical, archaeological, and socio-historical contexts. The following data are included: existing editions, translations and images, type of inscription, geographical provenance, dating, object (with reference to the material, state of preservation, measures, and last recorded location), writing technique, number of inscriptions on the object, language, length of the text, meter, layout (in relation to the metrical structure), clients and recipients, author, external online resources (e.g. PHI Inscriptions, Trismegistos, MAPPOLA, CLEO, CARMEN). The data structure is described in the Data model. Data can be entered manually through the functions ‘New Item’ and ‘New Property’ or through QuickStatements. The data are analysed using the Query Service. Queries are collected in the page Query - access to data.
Another aim is to contribute to the creation of a common data model for Greek and Latin epigraphy to be shared in Wikidata and other Wikibase instances, in order to achieve interoperability between the projects. The data model should be as consistent as possible with the principles and vocabularies of the FAIR Epigraphy Project and the WikiProject Epigraphy in Wikidata.
This project has been initiated by Pietro Ortimini (University of Pisa) and currently revolves around the data he has collected as part of his doctoral thesis on the literary forms and metrics of the Greek metrical inscriptions from the Imperial Age (late first century BC-early 4th century AD). As a future perspective, it would be desirable to expand the Wikibase to include the Greek metrical inscriptions from the Archaic and Classical periods, the Hellenistic period and Late Antiquity.
