Description
From the project website (accessed 2025-09-09):
The EDAK (Epigraphische Datenbank zum antiken Kleinasien) project, based at the Department of Ancient History at the University of Hamburg, aims to collect the widely dispersed published Greek and Latin inscriptions from Asia Minor (the western regions of Turkiye) and to present them in a database accompanied by descriptions, translations and brief commentaries.
Currently, the database contains over 6,000 inscriptions from ancient Lydia, Galatia, Paphlagonia, Phrygia, and Proseilemmene. Work is ongoing to include additional regions. Following a recent technical update, the inscription data is now available in the TEI/EpiDoc format.
The new version of the website allows the user to make a selection of filters to search the corpus. (Filtered) results can be downloaded in multiple formats, for example JSON and CSV. Full text search is possible and a Search Guide is provided.
