Epigraphy

Ancient language fonts While developing more traditional fonts based on historical material, we have occasionally hit upon historical odities or lettering styles of exceptional antiquity which have interesting qualities and in which there is enough interest to justify the effort needed to make them into fonts. As a result, our collection has a growing number of fonts based on the earliest ancient languages as well as fonts based on a variety of magical, fantastical and arcance lettering styles.

ASGLE Founded in 1996, The American Society of Greek and Latin Epigraphy is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to further research in, and the teaching of Greek and Latin epigraphy in North America. The Society fosters collaboration in the field and facilitates the exchange of scholarly research and discussion, both in the public forum and in published form. The Society is associated with L'Association Internationale d'Epigraphie grecque et latine (AIEGL).

Bibliotheca Classica Selecta (BCS) La Bibliotheca Classica Selecta (BCS) est une introduction bibliographique destinée prioritairement aux étudiants de philologie classique et d'histoire ancienne, accessoirement à tous ceux qui s'intéressent au monde gréco-romain antique et aux civilisations qui l'entourent.

et surtout le volet "Epigraphie en autodidacte", où une quinzaine de bonnes photographies d'inscriptions latines, triées par niveau de difficulté, sont présentées "toutes nues", à déchiffrer par l'étudiant; mais chacune liée à sa "solution", comportant transcription diplomatique, développement, traduction et commentaire; parfois liée à un contexte plus ample.

EpiGraph A database of Roman inscriptions, contains the text of those inscriptions collected at the instigation of Th. Mommsen and published under the auspices of the German Academy of Sciences in volume VI of the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum. The editors Henzen, de Rossi, Bormann, Huelsen and Bang published the various fascicles of volume VI in the years between 1876 and 1933 and they contain almost 40,000 reports of inscriptions found in the city of Rome itself. Both the size of the collection and the provenance, the capital of the Roman Empire, make this the most important volume of the whole corpus and the mass of invaluable source material it contains provides the basis for any serious enquiry into Roman society, culture and history.

US Epigraphy Project A Catalogue of Greek & Latin Inscriptions in the USA. The U.S. Epigraphy Project, directed by Professor John Bodel, is part of an international effort to gather information on all ancient Greek and Latin inscriptions dispersed throughout Europe and the new world. The Department of Classics at Rutgers serves as the base for the collection and compilation of information on ancient inscriptions held throughout the United States and for the confirmation and cataloging of those written in Latin. The immediate goal of the Project is the publication of a checklist of Greek and Latin inscriptions in the United States in conjunction with the Eleventh International Congress of Greek and Latin Epigraphy in Rome in September 1997. Subsequently the Project will produce an electronic database of Latin inscriptions with digitized images capable of being searched electronically for notable palaeographic features and decorative elements, as well as for text.
